The Goldwind Chamber of Commerce that Perry had established had only developed to its current scale because many prominent figures had helped him on account of Xena. They hadn't done it for Perry at all.

If those people learned that he and Xena were barely on speaking terms despite being relatives, everything would be ruined.
