Even if he was inclined to tell the truth (and this is a politican with his lips moving).

True, good point.

I'd put him older, if anything. Kallyr is 34 and he dominates her.

Yes.... actually Minaryth is probably the most likely to understand what he needs, and the most likely to tell him the truth. But I can quite see Broyan being Minaryth's next "project". He'd tried to turn Kallyr into a competent overall leader, and failed (so far). His chances with Broyan are somewhat better. Was Minaryth part of this group, though? Or did he manage to stay in Jonstown? Need to check the Sartar High Council writeup (and possibly KoS) to see who got banished.
