In the capital of Leopoldine...
In the corner of that city, the Transcendent who had lost sight of Lothur was standing in front of that young man's grandfather, having just told of his previous failure.
"You did what?" That old figure asked in disbelief. "Are you telling me that child managed to trick you? Do you have the nerve to tell me that, Erhard?"
"That... He had a teleportation formation, yu..." He was saying this while lowering his head in front of this man.
The man with silver hair and a beard looked at this kneeling individual and interrupted him. "Excuses!"
"How did it take you days to find that out? If he had such a thing with him, he was supposed to have used it ages ago! But no, only after days of being watched by you did he do this!" Lothur's grandfather said in an irritated manner. "If you had tried to act decisively, as I commanded, nothing said would have happened, Erhard!"
