Caty had a telepathic mind-meeting with Runner & others.
She said she will make arrangements for Protection from her superiors after Court's rise in Hell's Wealth. Rises in power brought jealousy, attention & danger.
She decided to fund 'insurance' from her own treasury of Rubies:
- 'i don't need casaulties. Will You add to it?' - she asked.
- 'We do care. How much?' - Crystal Candle replied.
- 'No more than 10% of what Runner earned from bribes' - Caty answered.
- 'So it's 80 000' - Runner told.
- 'i can add 30 000. i don't need so much.' - Marlena spoke.
They decided that Crystal Candle should keep her 108 000 Rubies, because being Runner's girlfriend she could be a target of attack. She needed that power for self-defence.
In the end Runner paid 50 000 Rubies, Marlena added 30 000 Rubies, Caty probably much more.
- 'i'll make proper arrangements so it's of the most benefit and lasts' - Caty spoke again.
Drake wished to add, but Hue stopped him:
- 'You'll need this for Stupas, remember?'.
Drake went quiet.
Mind-meeting was concluded.
