This had better be good. I've got enough on my hands without having to babysit newcomers.

Don't worry about getting me and Brif confused. I'm the older one, and the one in charge.

When I ascended, he was right behind me. When I volunteered for the Archon Battlegroup in Kamar, he did also. I made sure Stellman assigned him to my command so I could keep him out of harm's way.

He complains about being stuck up there giving out assignments, but being a captain is a very worthy position. Blood and Glory isn't all it's cracked up to be.

We're a small force down here, Daeva. Even if we had the numbers it'd be hard to get supplies through.

The Shugos can get shipments down here with no wings, or ability to use Aether. There's a certain ingenuity in that I have to admire.

It feels a bit treacherous dealing with those who also feed our enemies, but I'd rather do that than starve. It also frees up my resources for dealing with this ancient Danuar weapon we've heard about.
