[In this universe, Timothy Wright, you still know better than anyone how to cultivate a lie.]
[He's not nobility. He doesn't have a list of names a mile long. He doesn't have any noteworthy lineage. He's not important. He's not anyone you know by name, nor should he be. He's where those with actual stature need him to be: dumb, obedient, and not overly predisposed to argue. He knows his place, doesn't he? A spotty past with the chantry isn't enough to prevent him from falling through the cracks.]
[It's not clear which party he's working for, whether on the books or off them; but to that end, does it really matter? He does what he's told, and those demons that once plagued him have left him silent and dull, and perfect to be ordered around without consequence. Just a servant to nobility, and one that people can be plenty loose-lipped around.]
[Still, if you want information, he's one of the best ways to get it - provided you can pay for it. He hears things, mostly: things about Lacie, things about Tillie, things about a third party that's managed to slip in through backdoors like him. He does the dirty work, it's fine. Sorts through the silt and grit to get to the nuggets of actual, quantifiable information beneath.]
[And if you can incentivize, he'll even be willing to pass some of it along.]
