A synthesized woman's voice picks up the call.

"Your call has been forwarded to an automatic voice message system. Two - Zero - Two - Nine - One - Eight - Two - One - Three - Two -- is not available now. At the tone, please record your message. When you've finished recording, you may hang up or press the # key for more options."

Dimitri hasn't figured out how to customize the thing yet.

I do.
You are right.
If violence had broken out with no one to intervene I would regret having left my post.
It is difficult for me to accept.
But I will try.

The logic is sound. Dimitri's also still cursed, and he should have known better, but Tayrey barely accepts magic as a subset of natural law; Dimitri is not going to argue with her about fate.

Of course.
We need not speak of anything unless and until you are ready for it.
If I may say only.
Whatever happened there.
It does not and will not diminish my respect for you.

I value that assurance very much. Thank you. I don't want to misrepresent myself to you, so I'll tell you about it someday. When I can.

As for you, take your time and try to be kind to yourself. Even if you can't use a reason for it beyond that it'll help your productivity.
