Though the establishment was not located near Valeria but near Woville and Bonelake, Alexander being one of the four lords kept his eyes and ears on everything that moved and breathed.
Damien nodded his head, knowing what Alexander was speaking about. The pain and torture one went through in that place broke one's very soul and resolve.
