012 [audio]
For anyone who was present on Deck Twenty roughly one hour ago and witnessed the rather spectacular crash of one Commander Erol Kadir, I would like to assure you that he has been tended to and should be on his feet again soon enough.
[His voice has an edge of tiredness to it, as though he's worn himself out and is pretending otherwise. And honestly, he has; Erol took a LOT of patching up.]
For those of you who would have preferred I left him to go into shock and bleed to death, I believe you should probably take a moment to understand my priorities.
You see, Erol and I...we do not balance well. I doubt we ever will, considering our rather wildly varying opinions of a certain mutual acquaintance--but I must admit, not being a Havenite and seeing those horrors he is rumored to have taken part in myself, I do have a fair measure of respect for the man.
[Right. Yeah. Is that what they're calling it now?]
He is one of the greatest racers my world has ever seen, after all. Undefeated for years. I understand fully that Jak is better, of course, but...horror, failure, whatever he is, the fact remains that his racing is a work of art.
And as a racer myself, so far removed from my city and my own racing tourney, I could not abide letting such art simply die when there was anything I could do about it.
If you would like to complain, by all means complain. I do not hold grudges on behalf of my acquaintances, close though they may be, and I have always considered this one of my better traits. And if you have anything negative to say I think I should first make a note that it would be the first time I ever heard of someone being mistreated for saving someone's life instead of taking it.
