If he had thought about it for a little while, Satsume would have been able to answer Paige's question with a grand tale about how he was off saving princesses and escorting pretty young women to and fro (which wasn't that far from the truth, actually.) But embarrassment had robbed him of his quick thinking, so he simply said, "Not much."
He took a seat next to Paige. "Although the same can't be said of you, I bet." He took a careful bite of his pear and lowered his voice. "I heard someone had been dabbling in some royal secrets over at the Pherae Royal Library some time ago. Really rubbed Ostia the wrong way." He peeked past Paige's shoulder to ensure nobody was listening in before continuing.
"You're the first person that came to mind when I heard about it. I tried searching for you in Pherae, but I guess you had rightfully left for Santaruz. I'm curious, though - what were you looking for?"
