Aria could feel Michael's distrust and was grateful he was not seething with anger like most prior times they'd met. While she was in this place she knew Ascendancy would watch her and Nox and Lucas already had eyes and ears on them or would when they returned home.
But Michael was more concerned with their plans, whatever that was, really, to meet with others like her. "I don't think Ascendancy was overly concerned in the frozen tundra about what we were up to, why we were forming an alliance of sorts."
"I am sure Nox would love to meet you. He is already known by Ascendancy. There are others but their names I won't drop for their own safety. "
Aria laughed to herself, "Though I'm sure you'd not be fond of him. Most people aren't. But I'm sure he could learn a thing or two from you."
Nox could probably show Michael a few tricks too, but she wouldn't tell that to the man who could destroy everything with just a wave of his hand. "It is far easier to arrange that meeting than it is for me to get someone else to trust you won't fry their brains the moment you see them. He trusts me, and he's more than eager to meet others like him who have more skill and power."
Aria looked around and sighed, "Though I don't think that's why you are here. And I don't think you know either. A test of some sort perhaps. "I offered Ascendancy information on the Atharim, he didn't care for it. But you might find it useful, know they enemy and all that. Ask and I'll tell you. I have nothing more to hide from Ascendancy, thus nothing from you. I won't reveal my friends though."
