"How did he go missing?" Lumian asked, puzzled.
Baron Brignais wasn't just a mob leader; he was a Beyonder, too. As long as he was attentive, how could he allow his child to disappear?
Moreover, who in the market district would dare to snatch his child?
Sarkota shook his head. "He didn't provide details."
Could it be the machinations of the Rose School of Thought, striving to expose the truth about the Savoie Mob from Baron Brignais? With recent events woven into the mix, Lumian had some unconfirmed theories.
After a brief pause of thought, he inquired, "Do you know what Brignais's illegitimate son looks like?"
Sarkota nodded. "The baron's underlings came by with a portrait that resembles a photograph."
A portrait that resembles a photograph… Had he invoked ritualistic magic? Lumian's memory recalled the contents of Aurore's grimoires.
