Their first destination was Baron Ludwig's mansion. After listing the supporters of her mother, Riona sent private letters to them.
Thorin advised against writing anything explicit to avoid news leaks should anyone other than the supporters read the content of the letters.
Please forgive me for not reaching out to you sooner. I beg your understanding since I didn't know that you've been aiding my mother during her short life. New information has come up about her death. I wish to speak with you directly about this.
Not everyone on the list was eager to speak about Riona's mother. Some of them had switched sides to King Valentin because there was no use in supporting a nonexistent vampire.
But a number of them were willing to help. To them, Riona insisted on being discreet about their meetings. Even without any context, they agreed right away.
