"He was..." Gustav confirmed, his eyes scanning his group, ensuring he had their full attention.

"From what I've pieced together, Karis made a deal with a criminal group to secure her escape and retrieve the Rion. But their plan seems to have had some kind of mishap with Thalos being left for dead."

Falco frowned at the complexity of the situation.

"So since he survived, what's his move now?"

"That's where it gets interesting," Gustav continued. "I suspect Thalos is desperate to regain the Rion. He will likely convince Karis to take him to its location. If we can keep track of him, they'll lead us right to it."

Aildris looked up. "So we use Thalos as our unwitting guide. When Karis takes him to the Rion, that's our window to strike. We'll need to be ready to move on a moment's notice."

Gustav nodded immediately while responding.
