"I believe an explanation is in order, Lord Bullsteighn. As a member of this council, such is the bare minimum to be discussed--I'm sure you're aware of the exuberant funding some lords here at the table have put into the Argonauts; I wouldn't diminish their support."
Lord Kriegerhardt spoke with his hoarse, gravelly voice--but it was all the more clear as his sunken, dark eyes laid on the mountain of a man that looked less than pleased to be at that table. Even Lloyd could tell; Bulsteign came here seeking answers of his own, but it was the opposite prize that he had found for himself.
"...It was at the news of the Eight Heavenly Kings of Lucrauv first being established--as some of you might recall, King Held was less than pleased to hear of an elite, prestigious group composed solely of otherworlders being formed by the kingdom most openly rebellious against Mastorn. That fury turned into unrest, and that unrest turned into a job for the Argonauts."
