Brand's final almost-victim is the son Flora has been hiding from the rest of the family. Well, from everyone but Caine, apparently: his threat to spill the beans was the sword he wielded to get her to take me in.

The poor kid has no idea: he thinks his mother died in childbirth, and has been living out his days in ignorant bliss on a vineyard in Marseilles.

Only... he's not so ignorant anymore.

Well, okay, he thinks we're... "extraterrestrials". Which I suppose is sort of true. But I expect him to be educated in due time...

...because I gave him Flora's trump. Heh.
