"Don't you love Miss Lyra, My Lord? If you let her go then maybe something else bad will happen. Jason is nowhere to be found now. She is the victim targeted by him," Stefanus said at length after hearing the news from Duke Kleo that Lyra would soon leave Wereal, as Duke Kleo allowed her.
"She said she kept thinking about Tania. And I can understand that. I even had a hard time forgetting my mother when I lived in Landerhill. The image of her constantly asking for help was playing in my head. It was so painful. But I couldn't because on the other hand, I love her very much. That's why I kept myself busy until I finally had to receive warrior training in another city. I was only able to heal that old wound. Lyra must have taken the same amount of time."
"But are you sure? Jason's hiding out there." Stefanus no longer refers to Baron Jason using his peerage. "If you let her go then at least put some guards for her or a maid."
