The letter sent by Katherine arrived in the hands of the current Elven King at the Silvermoon Tribunal.
The young Elven King read it carefully and then lamented, "This cursed Lich! Always dumping a pile of work on my sister Katherine! He himself runs off overseas, isn't he afraid of being eaten by the Sea Monsters?!"
An evil thought emerged, and the young Elven King suddenly very much wanted to lead his forces overseas to confront this Lich and purify his soul. However, the thought vanished as quickly as it came, since they were allies for the time being; no matter how much resentment he harbored, personal grudges should not be placed above the Deity.
Meanwhile, in the Laine Imperial Capital, the news of the Lich's departure by sea had also reached the Young Emperor.
It started when a certain merchant fleet happened to be returning to port, passing by Laine and bringing with it news of the unending disputes overseas.
