[He read her reply three times before he settled on a reply to her. This was something that required a certain amount of care after all, and her fears were justified given the unknowns that they faced in this new place.

For Silco, this Council was not so different from the old one. It loomed large and overreaching, a thumb on his existence that he spent a lifetime rebelling against and would continue to do so until the day that he ceased to be.]
They are not so different from our Council; the illusion of caring for its citizens remains, and those of the undercity remains the scourge of their dispassionate eye. And yes, a sentient golem species and a yordle along with five humans. We don't know what the current one is staffed with yet.
The best course of action may be to leave Aldrip altogether. The Council's reach seems to be hampered by living in another city, or at least that is my suspicion with Kirimann and your sister having to come to Rumpitur to collect me for sentencing. It wasn't Kirimann's choice.
I will not have you controlled for long if I can help it. We are of the free city of glass and metal, the nation of Zaun. We do as we must for survival and enhancing our lives anyway we can.
