208 Deal

"If you, my Lords, don't follow what I want, then in less than a nanosecond..."

"Everyone and their mothers in the entire local group would know what the MoonScribes are doing."

'Lyra can only connect to Earth's network, but they don't know that~.' Emir inwardly added. 

A collective sigh was heard across the room, and soon both Ignatius and Auric spoke in unison:

"AYE!"

"Aye."

'Now one remains…'

Emir turned to face Isidore.

"You're loyal to the UEF, aren't you, Lord Isidore? Then we who go against the ORDER are your best bet."

A name that wasn't mentioned throughout their entire conversation was now finally revealed, easily conveying Emir's attention to the matter at hand.

Subtle scoffs and a single gasp echoed through the room as all three family heads looked at him with ranging expressions.

Isidore was an exception, of course, as he kept his cold black eyes locked with Emir's.
