Life at the Aett: Skarsi's Tale

[Thexare]

Lloyd was taken aback at the man's generosity. 'We are all Zoners', but even so, it's rare for one to stick their neck out like this. Then again, their necks seemed well-protected at the Aett.

"That was... more agreeable than I expected. No demands to go with it? Just... that's it?" It occurred to the Zoner that this might seem somewhat ungrateful, so he hastily added, "I appreciate it, I'm just... well, I expect people to try to screw me over. Life in a warzone, you know?" He took a deep breath, and a big gulp of his drink, to collect his thoughts, and looked at Fith. "I'll gladly take you all up on that offer, but I'll need to head back and talk to Fairfax. He'll know better than I would what we need."

He paused, and took another drink. "Actually... I'm going to have him pick me up. If there's nothing else, I should go get my stuff."
