So Convenient

“If we had known of you, we would have raised you as one of our own, trained you,” the man said. “Something must have happened to your father when you were born, for we would not have let you slip through our grasp.”

Andrev stared at him for a long time. “And if I had been found as a child?”

“We would have claimed you.” The man offered a hand. “Come with me now, and I’ll take you back to your people - your family.”

“So convenient of you,” Kana said, “to seek him now that he is so very powerful.”
