*those feathers on his wings floof a bit as some of the discussion reaches him, and he pauses right there to listen further, taking another few slow steps after a moment. This couldn't be right. He'd heard of no such problems in the Citadel; his clan worked pretty closely with the humans to make sure they were all cared for, so to find that needs weren't being met here.... Even when they were slaves under Raziel's clan, he and the other humans never wanted for anything. How was this even--?*
*he'd heard most of this, back at the tournament's closing ceremonies... but he'd well enough forgotten about it during the chaos that followed, in favor of more immediate concerns, like worrying over the people in the hospital. But this reminder... he needed it, it seemed.*
*another step or two closer -- the problems with the people being poor, without housing and enough food, the unequal treatment of the native citizens, versus the visitors like him... was there anything else he ought to overhear? Would they notice and turn on him there as well?*
