Larksong Grotto Decisions To Make, Secrets To Keep

For a moment, the woman did not speak. An expression of contemplation fell upon her face as she slowly turned away. The cardinal did not pry any further, and instead, he fell silent. Anything concerning Tambourine was a delicate subject. It was no mystery to him that Tavi intended to keep his son from him by shrouding her location in secrecy. Secrecy that Nova Rose was surely bound. However, the woman was no longer bound to her old master -- now she answered to Raas... And though it may have been a loose interpretation at best, Hiram believed it was the will of Raas that she fork over all the info she had.

She returned her gaze to him and spoke, but revealed no whereabouts. However, the subject matter of her speech was just as surprising. His brow furrowed in confusion. Saena. Immediatly, Reek cut her off. "How do you know that name?" Whatever she said after was lost on deaf ears. She meantioned his children -- the children he wholly believed to be dead. How could she possibly know the guilty burden that followed him.

"By the will of the Daystar, you must tell me," came his command. A part of him was unsure if it was truly God's will or his own selfish desire to know the fate of his children -- either way, he needed to know.
