Reid

Reid is clearly perturbed that Anura will brook no criticism of the way that she makes use of the ring, but has no trouble peremtorily changing the plans of a hundred other people. He takes a deep breath, and says nothing. A smile returns.

They are not my followers, Anura, but I appreciate the compliment. I'd love a few moments with Sarai. Why don't you go explain to the settlers about the delay, and we'll wait for you just inside the forest?
