Viktor had known from the start that if they tailored their presentation to the specific needs of Aquila, that Fallon would have a hard time saying no, but there's still a little thrill at the praise. Jayce glances at him and Viktor offers him a smile in return, the shared exchange familiar--no different from presenting to someone like Heimerdinger.

Though, perhaps, with more understanding and success this time.

Jayce more-or-less says it all with the official request, but Viktor is happy to supplement.

"We'd also be happy to continue to invent for Aquila specifically--our work can evolve with the needs of your artisans and craftspeople. Your priorities are different than those of Cadens, and I think you'll find that Jayce and I are adaptable."
