Chapter 126 Speaking To Draven

• The moon hung high in the sky as I paced the length of my office, my mind spinning with everything that had happened over the past few days. The weight of the most recent note still pressed on me, its cryptic warning etched in my thoughts: The true threat comes not from ambition, but from loyalty. I could practically feel the tension in the air of Silvercrest, thick and suffocating. It was as if the walls were closing in, and every moment I spent without answers was another moment we were exposed.
• I needed to know more about the rogues, about Draven’s involvement. Thorne had insisted that Draven must know something. A rogue camp that close to his borders? No way he was oblivious to it. If I could confirm his knowledge, I might finally have the missing piece that would reveal the mole.
