"Before we begin, I want to make it clear," Cassandra said, her tone firm as she glanced at Dallas, who nodded in agreement. "The pastor, Abraham Cronous, is confirmed to be the main culprit behind the murders in the city."
Cassian's eyes widened in shock, while Alix and Lumine looked surprised, though not as much. Cassian had his suspicions, but hearing it confirmed still caught him off guard.
"And what makes you so sure of that, if I may ask?" Alix said, breaking the silence and reminding Cassian that he, too, had no idea what evidence had led Cassandra and Dallas to this conclusion.
"Would it help if I told you that out of the three families he helped move into the city, two were murdered?" Dallas said, his tone grave. This time, even Alix looked shocked as she nodded.
