Bab 485: The Fall of the Mighty Mazzanti Family (2)

Minutes earlier, at the local Awakening Temple...

"So that's what happened..." Assistant Temple Master Sim muttered as he finished hearing from Sacred Devotee Bourne about what she and her group had found in the Crow Woods an hour ago.

Layla stood in front of the leader of the local temple, looking out of one of the windows of this man's office as she did her job of reporting what had 'happened.'

"And where are their bodies? Cesar Mazzanti's body is precious to us." Sim said, curious to know the man's true identity and to give his organization a chance to study someone so talented.

When a magician died, their Magic Gem and pentagrams crystallized in their being, leaving traces of what they were in life. Through autopsy studies of magicians' bodies, much could be learned about a given individual's magical form, potential, talent, and much more.
