Sage arrived in the Oman District well before 5AM. With an hour to finish his journey he must hurry. The next client was Nyla, a widowed yoga instructor.
Out of all of Yuro's clients Nyla was the easiest to deliver to because of what's written on her certificate of conduct. She one of the few business on Drusilla family land that can legally carry poison ivy.
Sage landed in a warehouse next to the yoga studio where he tied his jacket around his head. A prince can't be seen in a place like this. He changed his posture to appear hunched and ate some chalk to add a raspiness to his voice. Now he could walk in without being noticed.
Sagittarius opened the glass doors and maneuvered around all of the handing trinkets and vintage vases until he got to the main studio where Nyla is finishing her 5AM calming session. He realized he arrived so early is wasn't close to being finshed. Nyla hates it when her sessions are interrupted.
Nyla is much stronger than Sage or any of his siblings. This yoga concentration makes look like she is in her mid 300's when in reality she is well over 1,000. Her age is just a mirror of her high standing.
The stronger you are the longer you live. There is a shady old guy that comes every year to see if your life expectancy was risen and he is well over 4,600 years old so no one touches him because he is a force to beware. Sage himself have a good 500 years ahead of him.
Sage decided to look at her office as well and see if there was anything strange. Similar to Marshal's quarters it was very barren except for a locked box and some paper work on a desk with a yoga ball. Curiosity over took him and he looked at the box. That is when he noticed a small poem on the bottom of the box.
The skies portray a deadly day when shadows creep and old men sleep
The sun has been put to rest as the sky has failed to hold it up
The fallen star left the moon and wept the moon did
For the reason the sky let go was because it was asked.
"Creepy", Sage commented. He thought for a minute before realizing what the poem ment. It was the guilt Nyla felt after losing her husband. But what does the last line mean? Sage thought. " Who asked the sky to let go?", Sage's curiosity grew. He had 13 minutes, plenty of time to solve a riddle. On the box was letter lock, he would need a 7 letter word to open the box.
Wait, if this poem is about the atrocities Nyla had committed then. Sage cracked the code, he needed an abbreviation not a word! And what better than the Seven Deadly Sins."The order would be the tricky part. Wait wasn't there a sign like that", Sage considered. He looked to his left to see a sign of the sins, he took the first letter of all of them and put it into the lock. "LGGSWEP", Sagittarius imputed. The box was able to open.
Inside was yet another wax stamp.Sage pocketed the stamp and closed and locked the box while scrambling the pass word. He would take a closer look when he was at home.
