"Your role is security, and our mission is extracting information. Alaric and Ione both have significant operational experience, but they don't ordinarily shoot at people--they specialize in other methods of distraction--and they obviously don't think like military.

"In the nearer term, it sounds like you're going to be stuck training some Lanterners. What do you need from me, to make that assignment endurable?"
