Raker, a good friend of mine for many years, his… uh… interrogation methods provide a great source for medical knowledge and how much our bodies can endure such agony. I often bring Cadmus to watch him use the breaking wheel on prisoners as homework.
He makes my job a living nightmare... The things he does to people makes my skin crawl, and I have to somehow make what he does go away in the eyes of the public? No amount of tasteful portraits can brainwash that terror out of people.
Raker is Mercury’s best friend, but he sometimes questions the company he keeps around and the ward he’s taken responsibility for. Where did Mercury even find this young man, his doorstep?
A quiet cemetery is better company than a screaming prisoner, but... Cadmus has very little leeway to stand up for himself in the world of the Church. He's a bottom-feeder for bottom-feeders, a pity pick-up... So he sucks air through his beak, exhales, and tells Raker he's doing a wonderful job and how clever of a scholar he is.
