1 (59): what two months?
I last explained, to those few Roundworlders of you who give a damn, about how I'd betrayed what I represented. How I'd not just broken a Law, but rewritten it in their minds.
So I was curious - how do you find a way back from that? I can't be the only inmate who is here for such a thing, can I? If you have discredited your word, betrayed your own words, how do you write new ones without everyone seeing you as a fraud and nothing but?
No matter of your sincerity, you deserve that title, don't you? For misrepresenting the very thing you stand for.
I'm a Grag. I spread the Holy Word of Tak. I told other Dwarfs to break that word, to absolve myself of the sin, to distance myself from it. Committing a graver sin in the process. Anything I say is tainted with that blood.
[Private to Narvin]
There was a contract due, wasn't there?
[Private to Sveta]
Are those recordings all right?
[pause]
Are you alright?
[another pause]
Thank you, Svetlana. For talking with me about... everything. It can't have been easy.
