"Adekhan!"
The yadoana called him, the female Earth children under his tutelage. Another reason to delay his leave- who could he choose to take over their training? There was no one he trusted to handle them properly.
“Aja’eko,” he greeted as their brother approached, checking his amusement behind gravity when the boy executed a flawless obeisance.
Khalid’s sisters were not quite so perfect. Little Ashe grinned while attempting to emulate her brother, shooting him little looks from merry dark eyes. The eldest sister, Reign, performed her obeisance with the banked defiance he’d realized was not directed at him, but a part of her nature.
That one would be a Warlord’s consort, human or no.
“Adekhan, I need your help,” Khalid said.
“We’re not supposed to be here,” Reign said, sitting in Benyon’s presence without permission.
He ignored the lapse, watching the almost man formulate words. “My help, aja’eko?”
“Do you know what SIA is?”
An interesting question. He was familiar with the humans’ agency, the one tasked with providing for their people who had no families to look after them.
“I’m familiar. What does that place have to do with you?”
“I provoked them.”
Benyon’s brows rose and again he hid his amusement. “What did you do?”
“I’ve been skipping school. This is my third infraction.”
Amusement vanished. There were human cadets in the facility who’d fled SIA, and their barbaric system of remediation for individuals they deemed potential drains on social resources.
“If you knew you had two infractions, why risk a third?”
Khalid straightened his shoulders, gaze direct. “If I enlist as a prospect, SIA will leave me alone. But my mother doesn’t want me here.”
Ahhh… “Your strategy is to force her hand then.” Benyon frowned. “Your mother is unaware of your training here?”
Reign snorted. “Well, now she knows. Good going, genius.”
Benyon held up a hand. “You lied.”
Khalid’s teeth ground as he glanced at his sister. “Yes, Adekhan.”
Benyon turned his attention to the girls. Ashe, uncharacteristically silent and Reign, staring up at the ceiling, arms folded.
“And your actions effect your sisters?”
“…yes. If my mom won’t sign off on the paperwork, then I’ll be placed in remediation and our housing allowance will be reduced. I don’t think my mom will sign. She... doesn’t like fighting.”
“A mother would like the loss of her son even less.”
Aja’eko sighed. “Can you talk to her? So she doesn’t make my life miserable until I’m eighteen? Maybe if she sees-”
“I will speak with her.”
