“I suppose I owe you an explanation as well, especially considering our past”
Third didn’t bother to mention the past he’d constructed in his head for them
”I was following the methods of the Great Waxillium Ladrian, I’m distantly related to him you know, who advised sudden and direct action, to observe everyone’s reactions”
Considering the original humans were from Yolen, it made sense to Third that if you simply went back far enough, you’d find a common ancestor.
”But, since you now know of my master plan, I’ll have to follow the advice of my Good friend, and future prime minister of the Malwish consortium, and engage in some subtle manipulation”
(I.e. since I voted Dragonfly first, I owe you an explanation. It was a poke vote, but now that I’ve said this, I’ll need to look back at responses and see what my voting accomplished)
