The mention of her brother caused a tremor of emotions to run through Dani. Her face tightened, and her eyes narrowed into icy slits as she turned back to face the Grand Inquisitor.
"My brother is none of your concern," she replied tersely, her voice laced with an underlying fury that she struggled to contain.
The Grand Inquisitor chuckled, clearly enjoying the discomfort she was causing. "Oh, but I find it intriguing. Your brother seemed quite the formidable opponent during our match, but he vanished without a trace afterward. It's a shame, really. I was hoping for a more... personal confrontation."
"He has his reasons for not being here,. He's not dead." Dani said through gritted teeth. "Now, step aside. We have no time for your games."
The Grand Inquisitor's smile widened, her eyes glinting with malice. "Ah yes, of course. Go on, a grand carnival is awaiting you guys."
With that, she stepped back, allowing Dani and her companions to move.
