Chapter 286: The Settlement

Luthera immediately wanted to leave. 

Why did the master have to send him of all elves?

House Elceran and House Geroch had a blood feud that spanned centuries. Luthera kept wondering if perhaps this was another test by her master.

Did he expect them to put aside their differences and work together?

Or he had lost all faith in her, and Caligar was here to finish the mission she couldn't? 

Luthera was standing stiffly in contemplation when Fennelis approached her.

"What is this rider saying about House Geroch?" He asked. "I thought this was your mission?"

"It is." Luthera frowned, her face dark. "I don't know what my master is thinking – this has to be Caligar's ploy."

Her master was always fair, but oftentimes he was eccentric and easily distracted. Nothing thrilled him more than a puzzle that he wanted to solve, and he often did everything in his power to solve them quickly.
