But. I agree that I would like to know what promises were made. It's easy to imagine the sort of lumping together the Chantry and others might like to do the moment they're able. Did you have a particular method of finding out in mind?
Possibly. It rather depends on how you ask, I suspect. Based on observation, anything that comes across accusatory will get us nowhere, but I wish I knew more about any of the people we'd be approaching, to decide on a way to frame it. Three of those who went I don't know at all, beyond reputation. I've worked with the provost, but I can't say I've much of a read on him.
