It was always fun watching how prickly and suspicious people were when he first approached until they heard what he had to offer. No doubt M’ris’ tune would change like so many before him but it was how quickly the greenrider was unsure of. “Oh, I wouldn’t dream of doing that to you, bronzerider M’ris,” J’ver smiled pleasantly at the man and walked over to a nearby tree stump and claimed it for a stool.
He paused for a moment, watching the bronzerider to gauge the interest before continuing with the tale he had told to others already. J’ver was making sure all angles were covered this time and if he stumbled, he’d have enough hands ready to catch him because their new lives and power would depend on his continued safety and success. “S’kef is sadly, oh how should I put this, on borrowed time. I’ve heard whisperings and seen looks being exchanged.”
Some of those whisperings and looks were from M’ris as well. The man had been a part of the small and ineffectual uprising turns before against T’suen and D’ren because they weren’t happy with how things were and how some things were being handled. J’ver had taken mental notes at the time, remembering who would be beneficial for a bit of blackmailing later on and who needed to be carefully watched. Some favours had been called in to get S’kef into the position of Weyrleader, including one on M’ris, though the bronzerider still spoke negatively quite a bit about their illustrious leader. Now, everything had changed.
“I once asked you for assistance in getting S’kef power. Now, I want to position you in the right place to take it away from him. Are you interested?”
