Far Sooner Than Expected

Zale's sense of satisfaction at finally killing his enemies after so many decades of waiting was overshadowed only by how much he had to do and how excited he was to see his little sister again. He had a lot on his mind and wasn't quite sure where to start. 

He had been prepared for anything Nerida might throw at him but couldn't believe how stupid she actually was in the end. He talked his way out of that one far too easily. 

He couldn't have done it without Aila and her father though. He acted nonchalant despite internally panicking because they could very easily expose him. Thankfully, they had known it wasn't in their best interest to do so and backed him up. That was the only rough spot to this whole ordeal. The rest had gone rather smoothly.
