Daisy Chain

Even after signing a contract, which turned out to be one massive non-disclosure agreement tailored to his specific situation, Kir was not given much more than what he needed to know. That was fine. Whoever Quill, Lumin, and Imogen really represented, they had conceded to the carveouts he wanted as far as being able to inform people he trusted about things he learned from them.

The primary purpose was for him to not be able to reveal their identities or the identities of anyone in their organization, which they refused to name even after his signing. Something Quilliam did allowed him to merge the signed parchment into his body, which aside from being a little freaky confirmed to Kir that they took their secrecy seriously to a fatal degree.

"We will be in touch," Quill said as soon as breakfast and the signing were concluded. "Your ring will arrive within the week."

"I'm scheduled to return to Norneau in a few days," Kir replied.
