"I take it that you don't like our deal…" Reincarnation said.
Kael nodded, "That offer felt more like an insult to my personal sovereignty if I'm being honest."
It was. Reincarnation basically asked him to expose himself completely to her so that she could infiltrate his systems without restrictions.
All in exchange for some information about the whereabouts of some Primordials.
Kael wasn't that desperate.
On the bright side, that offer had indirectly put pressure on him to find alternatives.
"Well, all is said and done. You can't blame me for trying to get the upper hand, but that's that.
Why don't we refine the deal a little," Reincarnation said.
"Oh, what do you have in mind?" Kael asked.
Reincarnation went silent for a while, her eyes drifting as if she were listening to something that wasn't happening here right now.
When Reincarnation acted like this, it occurred to Kael that he too may simply be talking to a clone.
