The negotiation between the Dark Apostle and Ves progressed smoother than expected.
That did not mean that both sides got hung up over a few outrageous demands.
To Ves, the thought of surrendering 40 standard hours per standard week sounded like an intolerable surrender of autonomy. Why should he give up so much precious time when he was doing fine when he ignored his alter ego's existence?
The Dark Apostle did not think so. He graciously let Ves retain ownership of the 128 hours of the remainder of the week. He had made an enormous concession by giving up any attempt at establishing a more equitable distribution.
