Jem's dark brown eyes widened in surprise and pride. It was clear that these children were important, and for Yr Saldan to trust Jem with their care...he began to breathe quickly, and a huge smile broke over his face. Saldan waited out the expected burst of enthusiasm, and finally Jem caught himself, shook his head a little.

"Yes, sir! Of course!" Capable and loyal! "Of course I'll do that for you." He was still a trusted corsair. "Yes, sir. When should I start?" All his dreams... "Where should I start? Should I see someone to lead me to the children?" ...had come true. "Is it a protected location? Will I know where it is? Or will I be led to it and from it? What will be exactly my relation to the children? Will I be their caretaker, or just their guard, and should I be their friend? I can do any of it, sir. Or all of it at once, if you wish."
