Chapter 29: The Answer He Cannot Buy
Kael crossed the room and picked the council order up off the floor where it had fallen when she stepped out of his reach. He did not look at Lirien's seal on it. He held it out to Sera, face down, the way you hand someone a knife by the handle.
'You dropped this,' he said.
Sera took it. She did not unfold it again. She had read every line twice already, and the second line was the one that mattered: the panel would sit at first light, and the respondent would answer for the founding register in person.
He stood there with his hands at his sides, which was not how he stood. Kael filled a room without trying. Now he looked like a man who had been told to wait outside his own life.
'I have something prepared,' he said. 'For tomorrow. I want to read it before the panel.'
'Read it to me.'
He took a folded page from inside his coat. He had written it in the leather journal he kept for pack decisions, the one he carried the way other men carried a weapon they had never needed to draw. He opened it and read.
'I will state that the rejection was mine. That no elder's reading made it for me. That I signed the grant without reading past the first page and have no defense for it. That the children are hers, in her custody, and I will not take them from her or use them to hold her.' He looked up. 'And that I ask the panel to hear her as the founding heir she is, not as the woman I put out of the pack.'
