Bab 546: It’s harder to punish your family than your enemy

"Um...so, what are you trying to say?" I scratched my neck, not sure where the conversation was going now. 

[Ah, I mean, Zir'Kal wouldn't be the one to instigate it] Aleena said. [It's most likely the elders who did it. They probably brought him along just in case they needed charm while infiltrating--as pathetic as he was, no one could use charm better than him]

I see...he was also good at making people erase any persisting doubt about the charm itself--almost like brainwashing, even. I could see how he could use it for wandering servants and guards, I guess, and it was a perfect skill for someone who couldn't fight like him.

But you wouldn't be able to manwhore your way out of this, Ra Zir'Kal.

"So...you were saying he was getting dragged into this mess?"
