Ginella discovered something in G'thon's desk that awoke in her a suspicion as to how Yevide died. Ginella brought this information to Sefton

I would believe that more if it had not been six months since our last scene. The fact you avoid me leaves me doubting your sincerity in your admiration of me. :p
This was an utterly awesome read. I loved how Sefton presented it to Neiran using medical terminology. Neiran really, despite what Sefton said, did not have much of a choice.
From Sefton: Those who say that morally correct decisions are those which come most easily have lived very little of life.
From Neiran: I am not a man who puts much stock in any recognizable existence beyond what one we have in this world, so I would say that if he is not 'with' Hirth, at the very least he is no longer without him...
Amazing. In a way, they're so very detached, referring to G'thon as though he were a mere medical problem of a diseased limb. It is, however, completely necessary to do so, and the way they somehow manage to detach themselves, plan what they do, and still show such respect for G'thon throughout is simply stunning. Kudos.
I was forewarned that herein Sefton refers, for the first time, to G'thon as Ganathon. I was not warned that this would be his first reference to the man by name in the whole scene. It is telling, and powerfully so, of how much thinking Sefton has done; how heavily this document, and his own ideas about it, have weighed upon him.
I am completely tickled by Neiran's initial opinion: that Gans prepares to suicide. It's logical, appropriate, the product of healthy, innocent, pure thought. (No offense to Sefton or Ginella, of course.) And then the way Neiran expresses his moral choice - tell the harpers - and his discomfort with separating the 'two Ganses' that Sefton is creating - yet he drops into the surgical analogy so readily. What an association to create with one's daily profession! It makes me crave a scene with you, healer. ;)
I have a responsibility to Hirth's G'thon, not to Ganathon, who should not have outlived him. Emphasis mine. - There's a new sinister in town! If I succeeded at all

I mean, uh, it was the moral decision, and of course he had no real choice but to do what was right, however, difficult. Yeah, that.
