[ There's a bit of a delay here, because he's reading through the evidence offered with a slow kind of sinking sensation, a sickness that can't help but be impressed. Right there, playing Koby for information like she'd taken lessons since she was small.

Not well. We've mostly spoken on business. I don't know him very personally.
[it's humiliating to share, looking back and seeing how the compliments, the matching of wits, the approval had all lowered his defense, had him sharing innocent (to him) information. and now look at the state of things.
but koby has other priorities.]
He's powerful and dangerous and incredibly smart, but I count him one of my friends. He's married to someone very close to me.
I've told him the location of my notes, all my evidence, all the things I know, if something happens to me -- if I'm voted out or [worse.]
I'll ask him to make sure you get a copy, so the information can help this group. If that's okay.
