Chapter 2480: Turf War (Part 2)

"Wait. Why did Lith ask for Quylla instead of you? He knows that with Manohar gone you are the best healer in the Kingdom, hands down."

"I am, but I'm also forbidden to enter the Blood Desert." Vastor nodded. "So either Lith did it to protect me, or to keep me away. We both have our secrets and if he doesn't want to share, I'm not going to pry."

"And why are you forbidden to go to the Desert? Is it for something you did as a Highmaster?" Zinya looked him straight in the eyes, hoping for the truth but ready to swallow a lie.

Now that the War of the Griffons was over, Vastor had run out of excuses to refuse to visit Lith and Kamila in the Desert. He knew that treating Zinya like a fool would only make her trust dwindle so he decided to tell her the truth.

Or at least, an acceptable part of it.
