Gregor leaned forward and rested his forearms on the table. "How close is Evergreen to being fully covered?"
Sage thought for a moment. "Not completely covered, but close enough that I can start preparing for the next stage. Riverdale, Stonebridge, Silvercrest, Greyvale, and the surrounding branch network already give us strong reach across the region. We still need branches in several important cities and smaller offices along major traderoutes, but that can be handled here without me personally supervising every step."
"So several more branches," Gregor said, "and Evergreen is basically ours."
Boren immediately looked at him.
Gregor noticed.
"I mean Guild territory, not personal property." Gregor rolled his eyes.
Boren relaxed. "Good. For a moment I thought we were going to have another meeting about ownership percentages."
