'I'm not if you're asking about your eye or the situation,' he said. 'But the situation is not good. I just got home from work and the head of the Högdragen called to tell me that you'd been arrested for treason, escaped from prison, and then murdered Kasper Abbott and the Skojare Prince before going on the run again.
