[Well. Looks like Tzilan was right about the Seelie going on the offensive. It's one of those odd occasions where Saralegui wishes the vampire wasn't always right, but nothing to do about it now besides damage control. If that happens to be good for his image, then that's just bonus points.]

I'm sure everyone is aware of the upcoming fighting by now. And I'm sure there are those who, like myself, have no skill whatsoever in that area or just no interest in it.

[Just look at him. He's a twig, and that hair is absolutely not at all practical for fighting. The  self-aware, slightly self-deprecating little smile he wears is only further evidence of that. And better, of course, to play up that helplessness. He prefers to be underestimated, and the knife the Brucolac had given him is very easy to keep hidden.]

So I'd like to offer up Redgate as a safe haven away from the fighting. Others have made this offer, I know, and I hate to be redundant. But I would hate myself more if I didn't make it at all, and I can at least offer a place well out of the line of fire. It's very defensible, and kinder to shardbearers than most places have been lately -- the result of having been founded by a shardbearer, I assume. The distance might seem great, but for shardbearers it isn't really that bad -- only a few days from the nearest fairy ring in Daonna.

Truthfully, I am Unseelie myself, but I make this offer to anyone who wants it, from whichever court. The politics of this world mean little to me. I only want to see those who can't defend themselves kept safe.

[Saber had asked him as the Unseelie General to take Unseelie-aligned individuals into Redgate's care, but she hadn't technically asked to only take those from their own court. If she has a problem with how he does things, then she can bring it up with him personally.]

You'll be the first to know.

And on that note: a knight of Caer Glaem has just privately asked for a meeting with me, "to discuss these policies". I'm sure it will be fine, but just to be safe -- if news arrives that I've been assassinated or something, please make sure people know where the fault lies.

[Waver's look can only be read as oh for fuck's sake.]

I'll ensure it. If blood granite wasn't such a problem, I'd say switch your audio on to me just in case something goes to shit, that way there's recorded evidence.

Do you want me to get a message out to Alyosha? If I have a name, maybe she can get some background to you or myself. Have an idea of what to expect.

[enthraller]

That would be lovely, actually. He called himself Tarz. I'll put him off for at least a week to give you time for all that, but he requested a meeting within a fortnight.

[gordianknots]

I'll haul ass. If you've got a line to other means of information, use them.

[enthraller]

I might have something I can make use of. I'll get on that, and you be sure to let me know what you find out on your own.

[gordianknots]

Absolutely.

Honestly, we should get a more secure line.

[enthraller]

If you have any ideas, do let me know. I'm afraid my attentions are primarily elsewhere these days.

[gordianknots]

I'll work on it. And until then, I'll try and get you the information soon.
