“You looking suspicious? Wouldn’t the person who poisoned D’ren have already known this information about the plant?” Lorenuo asked, throwing in his own simple logic. Honestly, he never thought as deeply as his friend on various topics though he did immensely enjoy tossing around the rumors they heard and theorizing on them in their spare time, so the attack and investigation was like a holiday to Lorenuo and he’d been eavesdropping every chance he got.
“Well just about the whole Weyr knows that he was poisoned and with Tansy. Stop and think, who would benefit most from D’ren being down? S’kef has some obvious advancement there – But who else? Does anyone benefit in a second-hand way? Like that green rider who’s always drooling at the man’s feet?” he asked of his friend as he watched him consider the questions.
