Karyan slipped through the silent halls of the large mansion, his thoughts were filled with plans and possibilities.
He needed to see the bodies of his family again, to pay his respects. It was something he couldn't delegate to Sin or anyone else.
It was his duty, his burden.
"Sin, I know you can hear me…get Reverie hired in this mansion, please."
"On it!"

After a few days, Karyan heard whispers that Reverie was to be brought to the mansion soon.
He could use her help here.
"I'll make things right," he murmured, "I'll protect us."
Leaving the room, Karyan considered Lanta.
'Still no sign of her…'
Would she remember their past? The thought of her anger, or worse, her indifference, tightened his chest.
'I must be prepared for anything,' he thought.
He knew he needed eyes and ears within these walls. Mateo and Maiko were up to something, and he needed to know what.
A spy would be vital.
