Andivius Hedulio

CHAPTER VI
7/27

I comprehend perfectly that you connived with the Satronians to entice my people into a roadside brawl to discredit our clan.

I understand how ingeniously you made all your arrangements, even to concocting a sham fight with the Satronians to enable you to put forward the excuses you have offered.
"Your plans miscarried at only two points: you did not mean to leave any corpses, yet you caused the deaths of two of my retainers; you did not mean to suffer anything yourself, yet in your sham fight you were accidentally hit on the head.
"Blows on the head often unsettle the intellect.

I take that into consideration in dealing with you.

Then you will have wit enough to decide how soon and how often it will be advisable for you to return here!" His labored sarcasm was entirely intelligible.
