"There was a girl that left before the dungeons flooded. I don't know if Kaz was going to get me involved, the water rose so fast. There's a lot of anger in that old man, but he's not a bad guy.

Of course he made sure the corridor was clear before speaking, and when he did speak, it came out softly, the words aimed directly to her ears.
