[Voice, un: howl in one] Coup continuation, threadjacking encouraged

[mustact]

Narula must be dealt with.

[ Yes, that is his opening.

This may be a bad idea. He should maybe have kept this all to himself. The problem is he has little knowledge of Narula or the Hand and, while he could probably find out, this would be more efficient. And he suspects he'll have to act fast once Caius Justus is gone. ]

Even if we succeed in turning him against Caius Justus, I do not believe it is safe to let him live. If we convince him he has been betrayed, he will possibly trust no one else again, and he is clearly cunning and dangerous. One only needs to look at the assassinations and kidnappings he has orchestrated.

[ That should be justification enough, he thinks. In fact, he thinks it's superfluous to try to justify it at all, but he offers it anyway. In case anyone has missed all that has happened. ]

If anyone has any information regarding his routine or any methods to suggest, speak. I will do what must be done.

It cannot, but must the only verdict be death?

I believe it is the safest option.

Then that is what it is.

[ She cannot change his mind. Just like she can never change anyone's mind.

Quiet, she exhales, something that lingers in its defeat. ]

... What do you suppose we are, then, that murder should be the safest option?

[ He's silent for a few seconds, considering that exhale, feels the weight of this choice on his shoulders and ... Well. He knows what he is. ]

Caught in the middle.

[ It should perhaps be left to the people of Ephes. He's considered that, many times over. That this might not be his place at all. Then he thinks about all the lives already lost, and the risk that many more may be taken if no one acts fast enough, and he can't bear it.

One life in exchange for many others. Is that not better? ]
