CH725: Sibling Leaders of Sibling Organisations
Abdul-Lateef was worried prior to the conference meeting so he asked Nabila for help.
The Erebus' Spymaster and head of its Syria Station helped her sworn brother to simulate a Q&A session based on the speech he intended to give. (1)
She was present at the meeting mostly to give him a familiar face to look to should he get cold feet on the podium.
It turned out both their worries were unwarranted as Abdul-Lateef held his own.
No, he took control of the conference and everyone present!
It was a result that was out of her expectations.
It wasn't like the preparation they did was useless though. Some of the questions asked were similar or connected to those they practised so Abdul-Lateef didn't go into the session totally blind.
He was armed with prepared answers which made the process easier.
