"And so we come to the heart of it. This is not about me at all, but your Inquisition and your pride." He spreads his hands wide, smile sharply crooked. "Keeper of secrets, assassin of malicious intent. The one that kills and lies to further only the most noble of causes. I should be grateful that all they wished was my head on a pike and not that they might turn their blades against you and your precious advisors in their beds. I shall add that to my daily prayers. 'Thank you, Maker, for sparing the throats of the Inquisition'. How gracious of you to remind me."

If you are to be a spy and an assassin be a spy and an assassin. Do not wrap it in pretty words and noble intent as though that makes this nation wide variation of the Game that nearly killed you any better than what Marjolaine bid done."
