It's not bad company. Despite his words, he's finding the whole thing all right, and he knows the value of having everyone in one place. He can get a headcount, for one. Find faces he might've missed and faces that might be missing.

"I'm told Nott runs its own ship." In that statement is a question, an implication: it's unusual. Kingdoms as tightly controlled as Thorne don't often let their territories operate outside of the crown's influence. There's a reason for why Nott seems to be almost altogether independent, if what Nadine's said is true. He just doesn't know what it is yet.
