Upon receiving news from Mandu, Komer grew anxious and restless. Although the messages from Eve and Finitz were encouraging, Komer believed the Court's people wouldn't just simply accept the opinions of some outsiders and dispel their suspicions.

These two were not like the Thunderhorse Knights, bound by a knight's creed—they were seasoned investigators, especially sensitive to the presence of Dark Force. Once they found anything suspicious, they would investigate at all costs. At that time, deciding what to do with Caucasus would be truly challenging.
