<span class="mu-i">“To what?”</span>
Sir de Ferros glances up, not missing the change in tone. <span class="mu-i">“You mean you hadn’t heard?”</span>
<span class="mu-i">“I hadn’t heard what?”</span> Sir Gilbern didn’t like those words at all, it was part of his profession to not hear those words.
<span class="mu-i">“Well, there is a wedding in Grenoble this spring.”</span> Sir de Ferros, typically unflappable, now appeared somewhat nervous.
<span class="mu-i">“Yes. And?”</span> Sir Gilbern was now turned around in his chair, reports forgotten. <span class="mu-i">“I hadn’t heard -what-, Cato?”</span>
<span class="mu-i">“Between the Norveski’s and the Andrei’s…”</span>
<span class="mu-i">“Cato.”</span>
<span class="mu-i">“You must believe me, sir. I didn’t bring it to your attention because of all these other reports of grave import…”</span>
<span class="mu-i">“Cato!”</span>
