Tiepolo’s face revealed no embarrassment. How dare you use information I supplied you as a means to refute my argument! Ha! Myndo Waterly’s barked laugh echoed through the domed wooden chamber like a gunshot. Wolf’s Dragoons will switch from the service of the Lyran Commonwealth to your own House Kurita. Will it? You suggest that the treaty will destroy the balance of power between the five Great Houses, but I doubt that. Primus Julian Tiepolo tapped his right index finger against his narrow chin. That piece of paper will destroy everything we’ve worked toward. With Davion’s Federated Suns and Steiner’s Lyran Commonwealth tied so closely together, we of ComStar lose all hope of maintaining stability. Down there in the courtyard, Hanse Davion and Katrina Steiner are being allowed to sign a treaty that will forever destroy the balance of power in the Successor States. No, Primus, you know that is not true, and now you send me away because I disagree with you. 'You say that as though you have actually listened to my arguments and even given them due consideration.'

Myndo raised herself up to her full height. Precentor Dieron, you have made your concerns very clear in the communications you’ve sent me and during the First Circuit sessions we both attended here on Terra. Is this just to be rid of me because I differ with you concerning this alliance? You’ve issued orders for me to leave for Dieron immediately. As you are not down below witnessing the signing of the treaty between Hanse Davion and Katrina Steiner, shall I assume that is the matter you wish to discuss?

He let his right hand drift back and point toward the window. Tiepolo pursed his lips and nodded his head slowly. More than words and honor, House Kurita respects action and wisdom. Myndo Waterly stiffened and met the Primus’s dark gaze with the fierceness of her own. How you, with so little tolerance for wordplay, are able to deal with the Draconis Combine never ceases to amaze me. Tiepolo’s gaze flickered toward the wall behind her, where a massive star chart was splashed from floor to ceiling. I know better than to spar with you, for you soon become impatient of such games. You rebuke me with your greeting, Precentor. Keeping his hands tucked into the broad sleeves of his dun-colored robe, Tiepolo slowly descended the short stairway leading from the window to the main area of his private audience chamber. His aquiline nose and piercing brown eyes had always made Myndo think of a hawk, but today she reacted differently to his gaunt boniness and bald head.

He had been looking out through one of the high oval windows of the chamber, which let in enough of the bright afternoon sun to illuminate the room. She swallowed and waited as the tall, cadaverously thin leader of ComStar turned slowly to face her. Though she fought it, a nervous tremor undercut the boldness of Myndo’s riposte. How could he know I was here? Myndo thought, momentarily shaken. The Peace of Blake be with you, Precentor Dieron. Standing stock-still and with his back to her, the voice of Primus Julian Tiepolo suddenly rang out. In the half-second she allowed herself to recall the starting point of her argument, the Primus utterly shattered her strategy. Taking a deep breath, she stopped there and let the hood of her red robe slip back from her fair hair.

So fluid was her gait that she made it all the way to the golden star symbol inlaid in the floor without so much as a whisper of her silken robes to announce her approach. Myndo Waterly, the Precentor of Dieron, tried to slip into the Primus’s chambers silently.
