"That's why I like it here. They brought us here because of what we can do. They actually want us to use our power. I don't think a lot of the Summoned get what a big deal that is. Not just being allowed, but being wanted."
He'd probably feel differently if they'd put him in the dungeon, if he hadn't been among the welcomed. But he suspects he was among the welcomed precisely because Ambrose knew he'd be grateful for the chance and wouldn't take it for granted.
"What about you?" he asks Sasarai. The guy doesn't really give off lifelong fugitive vibes, but Ronan knows he's no expert in picking up on that kind of thing. People often surprise him. "Anybody want you dead before you got here?"
