"Now, instead, with your ascension to Supreme Magus the Royals can put a halt to the ambitions of the upper echelons of the army because a merger would give them credit for your achievement. I doubt that it would sit well with you, especially after what Morn did." Kwart said.
"You can say that." Lith nodded.
"Also, thanks to you revealing the contribution of Friya Ernas to your opus, you have proven that albeit flawed, the Association works. We are not like the army. We give our members the freedom to do and share what they want.
"Some of them abuse this privilege, but all things considered the good still exceeds the bad. Were Friya Ernas in the army, she would be court-martialled now. Since she was in the Association, instead, she'll face no repercussion."
Lith clicked his tongue, nothing Kwart said sounded like good news to him.
