Lasen Temeri arrived at their first scheduled study session in the library looking extremely rattled. “I feel like I’ve been wrung out to dry,” she says, giving Caris an accusing look that was very nearly a glare. She thumps her books down on the table and sits. “Your Highness, know that your husband is very concerned for your well-being and state of mind. Less so for students who just want to get through school and avoid drawing the attention of the Lord Warden.” The last words almost come out as a growl.
“I–” Caris floundered a bit, wondering what had happened, but not quite knowing what to say. After a moment he manages, “My lord spoke to you? Concerning what?” What concerns could Lord Nemar have?
“Be fair, Lasen,” Kano says. “Lord Nemar has reasons for concern.” He glances over at Caris meaningfully.
