The conspiracy that came about due to the terrorist attack on the Central Prefecture district was something that had caused a lot of damage to Lucas, both financially and mentally.
From an attack by terrorists aimed at disrupting the city while targeting influential figures of politics, to a vestige-smith store being drawn into the mix, it was a rollercoaster of events that no one had seen coming. What's more, there was a subtle yet unofficial agreement by both the terrorists and the city's top figures to go against the store. The terrorists wanted Lucas to be taken down, while the higher-ups only cared about the vestige-smith backing the store.
In the end, Lucas simply became a figure of collateral damage, with both sides poised to get what they wanted.
