Bab 2901: Collapsing Eternity (Part 3)

"I need to get rid of Thaymos now to protect you guys." Tyris shook her head. "If I just seal him somewhere, sooner or later the Council of Jiera is going to decipher his language. I don't think you want him going around babbling about the Destroyer and his cursed object."

At those words, Solus' anger at Tyris disappeared and was replaced by gratitude.

"By my Mom, I had almost forgotten about that. Lost cities don't have much credibility but if someone believed him, we would have gotten in trouble."

"Indeed." The Great Mother nodded.

Saying that Lith was bonded to a cursed object was easy to refute since he could foil any investigation simply by taking off the stone ring. The problem was that Thaymos wouldn't make a generic allegation but point at Solus.

The moment someone examined her from up close with a breathing technique and discovered that her energy signature was the same as Lith's, Thaymos' words would be confirmed.
