Will of Nemaya Strana

["Hey, fellas,"] Guorthigirn's voice buzzed through Tycondrius' earpiece. 

"Ex-CUSE me?" Natalya scoffed. 

["Oy. 'Fellas' is a gender-neutral term,"] the Merchant King argued.

["Well-- I'm sure PFC Mondt will agree with me."]

Natalya turned her indignant glare toward Mondt's corner of the tent, "the opinion of a fresh fish is hardly an acceptable standard on gender equality in a professional setting."

"Keep your bearing, Mondt," Rosenhart urged. "Don't embarrass me in front of my friends."

"Y-yes, Sir," the PFC mumbled. 

"As I've been happily married for 28 years now," Adal began, "It is my most humble--"

"King of Vralkek!" a frustrated Tycon interrupted, "speak your piece!"

He was glad he said something. It seemed that even Gobbuto was preparing to weigh his opinion.
