But then how do you keep your story consistent?
Simple. You lie when questioned. Consistency is for other people to worry about.
Just observe any politician, pundit, etc.
Their objective isn’t the discovery of truth or common ground, but to achieve particular goals through argumentation… aka Sophistry.
As a good liar, I always have issue with the “never tell the same lie twice” line. The way to make a good lie is to be consistent with it. Once you start changing the story, people will notice and the lie will be revealed. You can only really be confusing if everyone knows you’re lying.

You on the other hand, would do good in questioning your sources and who might have had an interest in tempering with them. I’ve heard rumours about changelings infiltrating earth’s communication.

I highly doubt a “simple tailor” would let a collar like out to be viewed by the public.
I think you _ a word, but I follow.
Fixed!
