"What?" Hearing Milo's chosen last name, Lothur stood up from where he was and looked at Jil with astonishment on his face.
"Jansen? Are you sure?" He asked in a louder tone, for the strongest family in Leopoldine had exactly that surname!
The Jansen family was descended from someone from northern Concordia who supposedly went to the area where Leopoldine would be born centuries later to live in seclusion, in peace.
According to many organizations in the area, this family seemed to be hiding from something from the beginning, but no one knew for sure what it was.
Thinking about it, Lothur immediately thought that it all made sense and understood why a mid-level power in continental terms would be hiding in that weak state.
Virtually every state on the continent had Saints, and they acted openly. But in Leopoldine, things were different, and the Saints of the area acted like Sages, acting from the shadows, in seclusion, and away from the material world.
