Theo smiled at her way of pronouncing Daphne's name. He thought of telling her that Liam could have worse, but decided to keep his mouth shut for now. Especially since Romilda mentioned staying in walls. It suddenly occurred to him that he could use Romilda more now than ever before.
'If you do, I think I might have an idea to...even the score,' he said slowly. He paused, watching her, waiting for her to turn to look at him.
'Stay in the walls, listen as much as you can - to what is said to the girls, to Miles, between patrons...then report to me. I'll know where to take the information, and how much of it to share. Rodolphus will never suspect that the information is leaking elsewhere.'
He did it every day after all, judging which information went where, how much of it that left his hands and how much stayed in the vaults beneath Forter Castle. More information was always good, more information would make him stronger.
