What do you have in mind?

[precedented]

Acclimatize yourself for now. An assassin who cannot blend is of little use to me or anyone else. Once you accomplish that, we shall see how to proceed on your mission.

[ He raises his eyebrow, daring. ] I assume this is feasible for you?

[c0nsequences]

Simple.

I will be in contact.

[precedented]

[ Leto grins, full of teeth and amusement. ]

I am known as Leto. And yourself?

[c0nsequences]

I have no name. I have been called the Stalker.

[precedented]

Perhaps you should have one. I find names have power. They change the way we see each other. Your current name inspires fear and doubt, and that won't do for your mission.

[ He comes closer, surveying him politely. There's a hint of energy, of pleasure that Leto is getting. He enjoys this, this kind of connection that he can forge. No complications. His eyes twinkle. ]

How does Almirez sound?

[c0nsequences]

[This man is...giving him a name? The Stalker isn't sure what to say.]

What does it mean?

[precedented]

New sand. New beginnings. We often christen a home with a sweep of the sands. Brush away the old, bring in the new.

A start is always fragile, delicate. But bold . . . inventive.

[c0nsequences]

[It will suffice. How long has it been since he had a name?]

It fits. Thank you.

[precedented]

You're welcome. Contact me should you require aid. You are under my protection.

[c0nsequences]

I don't need protection.

[precedented]

[ He tilts his head. ]

What do you need then?

[c0nsequences]

Time.

[And to figure out what powers he still has without his weapons.]

[precedented]

You do not lack time here. But what will you do with your time?

[c0nsequences]

Train. Learn to blend in.

Await your orders. [Whether they're worth following or not.]

[precedented]

That will do for now. You have a long road ahead of you. In a way, it'll be harder to blend than it would have been before.
