"What happened?" Arthur thought as he stepped out of his lab.
The entire villa was a mess, with broken furniture and books scattered all over the floor. Someone broke in and was looking for something, but how?
Arthur had spent lots of time creating the formations around his villa, and even though the city had lots of criminals, it was not to the point of people breaking in without the guards noticing it.
Also, this villa was in a rich area of the city, making it safer than the rest of it.
"I should ask Jhazaken to see if he saw something."
Jhazaken was his neighbor, a dark elf who was also a mage. Arthur barely went outside, but every time he did, he would take the chance to chat with Jhazaken.
He left his villa and went to the villa on his right side.
"Jhazaken!" Arthur yelled, and within seconds, a youth appeared.
"Akhur, hey. Is something wrong?"
