Oooo I like it! Extra mess with messy sprinkles on top, very good :D Though quick question, what do you mean by honour debt? Do you mean like restoring his reputation?
Restoring his reputation, or perhaps he'd been demoted due to the incident. Either way he'd suffered embarrassment and humiliation in the eyes of his peers, and now has to perform some monumental act in order to regain his former respect. Something like helping to recover the
Lone Star, perhaps.
@Kalas Now how did she trick him? Do you want her to do it my manipulating him if she had feelings for her or maybe... er.... something else?
I'd suggest it be something where he would've believed he was doing the right thing and performing his duty right up to the point where she revealed he'd been played. It all depends on exactly what it was that got stolen, its importance to his people and just how much of an idiot he looked when everyone realised what had happened.
Of course, there's also the option that no-one back home knows the item has been stolen yet, and he's in a mad chase to recover it quickly so he can replace it before his mistake is discovered. Again that would give him reason to be part of the team, as he'd be there following her.
