[Shang Qinghua bows, then claims the remaining seat, where he folds his hands on his lap. Phew, okay!]
Great Piety, Qinghua is here on behalf of two parties.
The first is your previous follower, who bade that I see you if something should happen to him. Fortunately, the morning's news was quite good . . . Still, I thought that I should see you.
I'm happy that you came; regardless of how temporary our alliance my be, I'm delighted to meet all of my followers.
[Piety inclines his head after taking his seat once again.]
Ishikirimaru and I have an understanding with one another, so I'll continue to support all his decisions regardless of his alignment. Fortune and I are on good terms, as well. I'm sorry that you had to leave her.
Unless you commanded a follower of Great Ambition's to use their power, Great Piety has nothing to apologize for. I do not believe this is the case. Ishikirimaru, who's noble of spirit, speaks highly of you.
If anything, Qinghua should be the one to apologize. My reasons for coming here are entirely selfish . . . But for as long as I follow you, I will devote myself to this alliance.
I'm aware of the circumstances that necessitated the switch...so I hope you don't feel at all ashamed or worried about how I'll react when you may choose to leave me.
[Why do I get the feel like the two of them are going to get stuck in a feedback loop of apologizing.]
As long as you're here, I'll support you in kind. I hope you find that you can count on me, Qinghua.
Is Piety going to be all right? To be this okay with his followers leaving him, what kind of a risky play is this! That's not good for the followers who stay, either. But . . . ]
Followers exist to empower the great being they follow. Ours is a mutually beneficial relationship. If there's anything that I can do, please don't hesitate to say so.

At the moment...anything that you can do to convince your peers to speak with me if they haven't already, I'd appreciate it.

Ah, is there a list you might have on hand, or is this follower to search for those who've yet to seek an audience . . . ?
