In retrospect, it seems obvious. Galen, Galeni - But good God. Duv Galeni, of Komarran Affairs, related to those Galens? Heavens. And they let him into ImpSec? Because By doesn't remember his Komarran history too well - or much history at all, really - but he's fairly certain that the Galens were involved in the Komarran resistance. Heavily involved. His eye lights on Galeni with mingled surprise and, vaguely, horror.

Well. All the more reason to be careful with the man, isn't it? Though...ImpSec has trusted him, in spite of that colorful past. Illyan trusted him. For some odd reason, that information...well. It...rather makes Byerly more inclined to trust him, rather than less. What a strange effect.
