Messalina is the one they're debating. She's a figure with a host of the undead at her beck and call.

( Carefully, because he knows how it sounds, and he knows who he has been. ) I don't think a deal should be made with someone like that.

( He doesn't think a deal should be made with someone like him. But if he had his way nowadays he would have the Ghost Valley shut and silenced, and if he could go back he would not have freed them in the first place. )

Better that we keep her undead leashed, but unfortunately that is not how everyone else thinks.
