The person sitting beside Vira-Lorr gives a soft cluck of the tongue before speaking, and though it's the same voice, someone else is working the vocal chords now. )
.....Yes. I can do many things. ( The figure stares at her, unblinking and curious, wide-eyed, alien. )
I am a king. ....I know you. ( Slowly, he lifts his hand to turn his palm over, exposing the lines Vira-Lorr had looked at once before. )
