Meeting Nyx’s half–smirking gaze, Lancet felt a weird pang of unease. He’d been in the game for years, but this was his first time dealing with something like this.

Seafarion was in his thirties, never had a woman around–some even whispered he might be crippled down there too, not just in his legs. Even Lancet, his right–hand guy, had half–believed the rumors.
