[But, well, Thancred, you have his attention at last. Emet-Selch's frown deepens as each title is verbally ticked off, and by the time he reaches "Fandaniel", Lahabrea's trinket has been carefully tucked away inside his robes, and Emet-Selch stands facing him.]
So we found others to fill out the empty seats of the Convocation. Or rather, as I would predict, we sought out the shards of those who held them prior to the Sundering.
[The most logical course, for as he understands it, when the world was divided, all memories of the past were buried, existing only as mere fragments of inspiration. Either way, it places the three of them at the head of this organization, as those making the decisions... And those most responsible.]
[Fandaniel, however. No, the irony of that man's actions does not escape him now any more than it did when he first heard of them. If their time in Elpis had proceeded differently, would it have made any difference?]
...how decent of Fandaniel to wait until we were gone.
[There's no humor in those words; not really. Deep down he knows that what he heard was true, as fantastical as it all sounded at the time.]
Not that it particularly makes a difference considering my fate, but I would also be curious as to where you fit into all of this. Our "mutual friend" went into rather unnecessary detail about a certain encounter on one of the Reflections. The First, if I recall correctly. As far as I am aware, it is the only time that they and I crossed paths in your past.
Excuse the turn of phrase, but would you care to shed any light upon that?
