Azarias heads to Ella's chambers, seeking the way from occasional passerby.

'Now, what can you tell me?' he asks her, sitting on her desk while she takes the chair.

'Basically, this emperor's going to get himself killed. As far as I know, the assassins have already been hired. Top-class mages, too, that don't care about their crests being seen when they activate their circles.'

'Hmph. Well, why save him?'

'This new emperor is a bit different. Though I have no doubt that a streak of his predecessors runs through him, we could do a lot worse.'

'Very well. Arrange it.'
