A Job Interview (closed)
#8
Surprise flickered, though only for a moment. It wasn’t the answer she had expected, though these days the world tilted on such a consistently strange axis that she only nodded. 

“It isn’t a requirement for your role here,” she said, mostly in answer to the brief indication of nerves displayed in the moments before Anna had answered. “There are others here with the ability. If it’s something you want to learn more of, we can help. That isn’t why I asked you, though.”

“One of our employees is an ex-member of the cult that makes it its business to eradicate such people -- the ones known as Atharim, who you may have heard the Ascendancy speak of. We protect ourselves, of course, but the risk remains, and it's one you need to be aware of. We don’t hide that channelers work here.”

Carmen paused, once again to give time for the warning to sink in, or for Anna to ask questions. She trusted Nox. Even Oriena was unlikely to abandon them to such trouble, though she was equally likely to have caused it in the first place. Aside from the incident with Kasun, things were running smoothly -- Carmen ensured it. But before Anna committed herself to a job here, she ought to be aware that it might put her on the Atharim's radar.
