Piotr's already gotten Vorhalas's report, and while the intelligence was valuable...losing not just an outsider but one of his own men to Cetagandan capture, and one dead. And Lakshmi had had some promise, too, but with Vortala captured too and Grey dead, there had only been the mute Maine and the last two men on the squad still alive to deliver reports. Doubtless Olivia will be more than merely unhappy about this news.

Piotr is not particularly happy, either. Of all those to be captured or killed, and this mutant somehow still survives. When Miles presents himself, Piotr, stone-faced as ever, merely gestures sharply for him to continue.
