While listening to Eric, Quiron watched the floor. Some of the Pope's statement made him shaking his head. "Mr. Stone. First of all, thank you for the summary. Although some of your sentences do disturb me.
He turned to Eric. "I think I may said you before at this very place that the vessel was already well-known in the ranks of the Order when it was placed into our custody, yet you still declare it as a major sin of the Phoenix exposing the mentioned vessel to them. That makes me think that you call the two of us liars or you didn't even listen to our argues. I hope I don't have to believe in the previous occasion, as we never ever gave you the reason to think this way." he made a little pause and turned to the window to see the space of Baffin. "But, considering further my latter statement something whispers within me that you may ignored other of our argues, and to tell you the truth, I wouldn't like to fight against a windmill. It is just like talking to a wall." he turned back to Eric. "And declaring us as the allies of the Gauls, simply nonsense and outrageous. I'm not obliged to explain myself for false accusations."
As he finished he turned to Doc Holliday. "Mr. Holliday, our main concerns about the TAZ having a Leviathan class warship is the geographic location of your home. Baffin is one of the highways of Sirius, bordering four Houses. Such a unique ship can easily draw unwanted eyes and our fear is that it may cause unforseen consequences, and not only for us or the TAZ, but to the whole Zoner movement. About the rest, your fellow associate summed up the situation well, I wonder if you have any questions about this case, I'm all ears." he bowed politely and waited.
