When Zale came to visit, Aila noticed that he didn't seem displeased. He was usually fairly emotionless when he came to her chambers but tonight he was in a noticeable good mood.
"…did things go well with the surface-dwellers?" she asked before she could stop herself.
He nodded in satisfaction. "Very well. Those witches are fascinating. I have heard a lot about them from Tali but meeting them for myself exceeded my expectations. I look forward to the fruits of our alliance."
That was more information than she expected to get. He normally didn't say much when directly addressing her. He truly was in a good mood.
"She has told me quite a bit about them as well," Aila said. "I believe working with them more will benefit us."
