Erik took several deep breaths to compose himself. Torture would not give him the information he desired, at least not quickly, and he didn't have that time now.

He needed to talk to Van Dyke and Fischer and explain the situation.

Erik left the room with Emma inside the room. Of course, she soon left to call for a healer.

Erik walked down the hall and spotted one of the Red Palace's teachers. Few knew about Erik's return to New Alexandria and his current involvement in the rebellion; luckily, the spy was not aware of that.

However, that particular teacher knew. That was why he was nearby, because he was tasked with guarding the area.
