Chapter 56: Glorious

Lazarus had met the Oracle of Zeph long back when he was unsure about his future. The oracle was a seer and it was said that she was thousands of years old. He wanted to take Maeve with him to visit her. 

"Fine then," Magnus said. "I will ask Richard to send her a message to meet us in Zeph." 

"You also have to come there, Magnus," Lazarus said. "Both of you are going to be present over there along with Richard." 

"But I am not invited to Samhain," Magnus grunted. His cousin, Cain, didn't like him. At all. And it was an open secret. The main reason was Olya, sister of Lord Cain's wife, Naomi. 

"You are coming with me and that's it!" Lazarus growled. "I don't think that Cain would raise a finger on you if you are with me." 

"I don't trust that man," Magnus said, exhaling a rough breath. "And I am not afraid for myself."
