He clapped John on the back and put his latte to the side for the moment. "I knew you'd get it eventually." He went back to his normal speech, a more old, northern English lilt, though a bit of Stamford still showed through, he'd had to keep that accent for so long, that it was hard to just totally drop.
"Truly, I have been Mike Stamford this entire time. It was a good way to watch over you from a short distance." His smile faded a bit. "I apologize that I have not made myself known before, but for many years, there was no reason to. Now, there is. I know that you found Arthur, and Galahad, and that you are on the search for the others. I am not allowed to truly assist, I am only a watcher, but I can try to help in small ways, as I can."
