On the banquet security roster, my name alone had been moved one spot further in. I didn't ask who changed it. Asking felt like it would get me an answer.

• Sir RoidenAsk. What goes unasked is the first thing that dulls a sword.
  KlausYes. I'll ask this evening.
• Head Butler HaydenThat roster never passed through my hands. No paper in this house has ever bypassed my hands.
• Chancellor OrfevreA young knight moved further into the hall, isn't that an honor? Too much humility is its own kind of disloyalty.
  KlausI was taught that honor lies not in the seat, but in the reason behind the order.
