Advancing the Discussion

----

The room grew silent following Xorgrah's unexpectedly quick answer. Based on his expression, it was apparent that this wasn't an impulsive decision. While it was true that both he and Apollo had gotten off on the wrong foot, which also meant there was a very high chance that the early stages of a possible relationship were spoiled, Xorgrah wasn't one to mull over a negative situation.

After all, his position within the Council wasn't given to him solely because of his relation to its Chairman. While that was the case for most individuals presiding within the Council, Xorgrah's circumstances were different. Contrary to normal means of acquiring a position, Xorgrah earned his standing by presenting the capacity to accomplish all missions given to him with stellar results.
