"Shard Hamilton, Detective."
Shard introduced himself as they shook hands.
"Bill has already told me about you. It's lucky for us both that you could join."
The old man said cheerfully. At that moment, Shard noticed the champagne in the ice bucket on the coffee table, likely prepared by Dr. Schneider because the financial situation of Priest Augustus seemed only slightly better than Shard's.
Priest Augustus the Cleric was a Second Ring Sorcerer within the group, having become a Correspondence Circle Mage three years ago.
He was not a local born and raised in Tobesk City but hailed from a small town in the south of the Draleon Kingdom. Influenced by his family, the Old Cleric had believed in the True God "Mr. Dawn" since his teenage years and had passed the Tobesk Dawn Divinity Academy exam in his youth. At 23, he joined the Tobesk City Dawn Chapel, dedicating his life to the church without ever marrying.
