Tapping the arm of his chair, Sodun replied, "That's what's up for mediation and discussion."
"Assistant General Sodun, may I say something?" Lyra asked.
Sodun looked to the masked Zac, who nodded. Sodun agreed, "Very well. You may. And I don't believe we need to use honorifics during the mediation. It would only prolong the meeting."
"Thank you, Sodun," Lyra bowed her head to Sodun and then to Zac. "Thank you… How shall we address you?"
Placing the seal on the table in front of him, Zac sighed, "... Given my need for privacy and this momentary position given to me, do you mind if I go by 'Lord' throughout this situation?"
"We accept," Sodun answered for his entire table, getting no objections whatsoever.
