Finally, he said, in Tyssian, “You have a message for me?”

“What’s your name?” I asked in Sofarender.

We sat.
I would report that on my first day I learned his name and that was it?
They probably already knew his name. It would have been on his tags, if he still had them.

“I’m not a guard.”
“Then what?”
“I just came to talk to you.”
He stared at me for a moment before saying “Have fun” in Tyssian, and turned to look at the wall.
As he turned, I could see that the front and back of his beige coverall was marked with big, red, fabric Xs.
Rainer was a target.
