"You don't want to use the Legendary City Stele for the Petals of the Seeing Thorn anymore?"
Cassarae was a bit shocked by this.
It had to be remembered that not too long ago, this was extremely important to them. That was because making sure the Petals of the Seeing Thorn chose them over the Thryskai—namely the Kaelthar—was the only thing that stopped Cassarae from being heavily punished by them.
In addition, stalling the Kaelthar before they could gain strong control over this Sector would mean less likelihood that Sylas would end up being punished for the killing of one of their heirs. Plus, having this Sector in the hands of a power so much stronger than everyone else would restrict Sylas' movements too much even if he wasn't punished.
Although the Kaelthar seemed to be jokes, this was only a matter of relativity.
