"I... uh..." he said intelligently, taking a moment to think of the right words. "Not long after Sithis was defeated, I contacted both you and Jack. I told you to seek out Jack, and although I don't know if you did or not, but I would assume not, given the reception I got at the time."

"Regardless, I told Jack to keep an eye on you. You may not have felt the same way, but even if we weren't together, I needed someone to keep a watchful eye on you. It would not have done my heart well to discover Cosimo had taken vengeance on me by hurting you," he tried.

He was being honest, of course, but he knew that Torene could take care of herself. They both knew that, and now that he thought about it, it seemed ludicrous to send Jack as a guardian angel. Still, he had been horribly worried and distraught about the price of Sithis' defeat. He hoped that would count for something, because saying it aloud made him feel rather intrusive.
