Growing Entitlement
Kieran met up with Altair after avoiding the attention his tactless guild members would have brought. They were oblivious to the commotion his reappearance would cause. He had been radio silent for weeks, likely creating a vacuum in the streaming space and a pressure bubble that would erupt.
Actually, after returning to the Bazaar and being seen, his message board was filled with message requests. He skimmed through some of them, but none seemed genuine or would tide over the issues he was currently plagued with.
If he was interested in allying with them, he had to do that at a later, more convenient date when he wasn't operating from a position of overall weakness. His personal strength soared in the sky compared to others, but the things he sought to build anchored him to the ground and threatened to pull him into the earth.
Altair waved to Kieran from behind a curtain, gesturing for him to come closer.
