Chapter 316: Dark water

Sometime in the afternoon, a rumour began to spread about Syryn. Proof had been found that he was allegedly the child of a spy from the kingdom of Qion. Groomed from a very young age, he was sent to Elysium to spy on the royals and create trouble for Sigil. 

Rowan hadn't been concerned by the numerous false allegations that had come up about Syryn but this one was different. It involved espionage and security so there was a high probability that the Sanguines would be tasked with investigating Syryn's past and subsequent journey to Sigil. It was a malicious smear campaign and he knew it was just the beginning. There wasn't much time left before the ceremony so the ones trying to take down Syryn would be hard at work at the moment fabricating evidence and letting the word spread.
