"Ahh... Thank you.
Er... You know I was bluffing about being able to record things, right? I was trying to trick him into confessing on his own, or goad him into attacking me so he'd be arrested. It... wasn't a good plan, but I couldn't just let him leave."
Sigh
"I spoke with Apple - the thief. She used to be a knight; her entire life was rejection and failure, then the king came along and gave her a home. For the first time she had real happiness, and he just... ripped that away from her, and then she ended up in prison, waiting for them to come and take her hand from her.
I had to stop him, even if it took my life to do it. I had a few plans going in, but they were failing one by one. I still can't get over that none of the other knights of captains in the room bothered to look when I called him out on his crimes."
Sigh again
"Well, now you know. Tomorrow the king will render his decision on Apple's case, and I'm really hoping he lets her back into the knights. If he does, then would you be alright with inviting her into our squad?"
