When Artemus sent out feelers to find information on Syryn, dead ends were reached in every direction. To the anti mage, it was a sign that something had gone wrong. The busy man relegated his work to his other anti mage colleagues and took a leave of three days in order to personally search for the missing mage.
He has to donit alone because Rowan was already embroiled in a diplomatic scenario under the orders of Sigil's ruler. He could not outright disobey the ruler and so the anti mage had agreed to two days work with the diplomatic team. He would be responsible for protecting the kingdom's political advisor.
The blond's suspicions about Syryn's situation hadn't been confirmed because there was still time left for the mage's return from Coop island. Putting his faith in Artemus to track down the mage's activity, he busied himself with the duty that was foisted upon him by his King.
