Re: Alastor - Marlene
"Alastor, you can order them to do something in five minutes, or take the time to explain in twenty," she said. "Time might be a luxury, but if you don't keep people happy, they'll have no reason to follow you. People tend to forget how bad things are out there when they have problem right in front of them. I'm not saying to forego security, just be a little more... flexible," she finished with a smile. "You're doing a great job until now, so I know you can."
Marlene snorted. "Our country and culture, although with the current government, they wouldn't give you anything, let alone one of their child brides." She rolled her eyes. "I was in a rush to screw around. What's the point of saving the world if it's dreadful?"
