>You can sense them, but they are very faint due to your earmuffs. You would have to listen very hard to really get a sense of them.

>It depends on the person, but in general they are going to need a lot of time and attention if you intend to be efficient. Meira already strikes you as kind of a problem case. However, you suppose you do have some assistants that can help, in this case.

Before i act right now, i would need Kilga`s opinion and consent, i can`t act without asking everyone what they want.

We probably shouldn't be offering such a commitment given it was established at the very beginning of the game that we weren't really interested in taking on a disciple, but what's done is done, I guess.
