"My experience with Astien thusfar has been fairly pleasant. As with any sort of relationship, we've had our rough patches. I came to Astien looking for work and he gave me much more than that. He gave me a home and he gave me a family when I didn't think I had one." He briefly looked to his grandfather in the stands before moving his eyes across the room. "He did keep Aiden's true nature hidden from me, but I now see why he did so." His voice hardened with the later half of the sentence. "Aiden has a right to live just like any of us. He may contain great power and he can bring about great things, but destroying his chances before he even has one or locking him, or whatever you plan to do is short sighted. I have given myself to Astien and his son as a protector and I will stick to that whatever it may bring my way."
