Deal's a deal.
The Department of Acquisitions had a top-tier expedition about to set out to the Seret Mountains, and for Zael, the only way he could get onto it was with the help of three College Students: Gierliadel, Herrim, and Yuna. The first two, all they really had to do was keep their silence on something that happened in the past. Yuna had done most of the work in getting Zael aboard, including persuading Gier and Herrim to let bygones be bygones.
Zael's end of the deal? Giving those three a quick rundown in some sword training in the interim week before the expedition commenced. Five days of it had gone well enough. Even pretty good. So was there anything the matter, if all was pretty good? Yeah, there was.
Yuna. Zael had upset her somethin' awful. Over the course of the five days, she got less and less angry, sure, but Zael knew that what he had shown her, even the things he had said, still bothered her. And, well, she had every right to be angry at him. Because he had betrayed her (and Gier and Herrim) before, and she was afraid that he might do it again on this expedition. Fair enough.
So what Yuna did at the end of the sixth day of training surprised him.
