"This ain't the whole Imperial Law library, mind you," Figalina rasped, her metallic voice echoing in the chamber. "Mostly covers industrial legalese and keeping our toaster-lovin' brothers out of hot water. But hey," she added with a hint of a metallic chuckle, "enough for a newbie to stay out of trouble, eh? Don't want to be losing our beloved apprentices now, do we!"
