"Hello, thank you for the invitation, I'm Ser Angela Jornet."

Wave wave. "Nice to meet you, I'm Victòria."

Soler is confused about paladins as a class. Trying to be Lawful Good around strangers is terrible. He's doing it, but it's terrible and he wants to stop and go home, and they sign up for it to be their lives, so they are clearly very strange people. Still, they're Good. He nods politely to the paladin.

"Pleased to meet you. Were you one of those on assizes?"

"I was, yes, and then pulled from downtime to keep order in Westcrown and then diverted here."

"Difficult work. And unpleasant. Thank you."

"It's necessary but I think all of us are eager to see the convention turned toward its end."

She was kind of hoping to keep the paladins, actually! Having the paladins judge cases sounds way better than any other option! Unless they were, like, Delegate Artigas or something, she's not totally clear on how paladins are different from regular priests of Iomedae, but still.

"I'm not optimistic it will be an improvement when the convention does, but if it was sustainable I suppose you wouldn't have been pulled off downtime."

Paladins execute a lot of people quickly and Thrunes execute a lot of people slowly. It's probably useful having one here, but the room feels colder than it did before.
