That's the last thing I need. And if anything happens to him, the whole Conspiracy will be looking for me. To make me kill people nonstop until I fall over and die. Or sell me to a trafficker, or keep me for themselves. Depends on who finds me. Open season."
His voice is hollow. His gaze has lost focus; he's gone somewhere else.
