Kwan gives Zephyr a respectful nod–for all the Lunar's monstrous form and strength, the old man can't begrudge him as he comforts a child. "Minister Echo. What's going to happen to Captain Transval?" he says, turning to the circle's spokesmen. "Because if you're going to get rid of him, the guard is going to need a new commander. I can hold it together, but I can only provide a bare minimum of order–if you want the guard to actually be able to protect Lotus, you'll need a better man than I. And damn it, as much of a monster as he is, that man could do it. He carries himself like a warrior, and he knows the voice of command. The young ones would listen to him, and us old guard could respect him. So what do you think, Mister Minister?"
