The Royals had just begun to make the noble households forget about the fall of House Frorl when the attempted kidnapping of the young Verhens had opened another can of Leviathan-sized worms.
There were two issues that were raised before the King on a daily basis for over one week now, and both were classified as matters of national security.
The first one was about Lith's proven ability to break through the magical formations that had kept the members of the Royal Court safe from all threats since the founding of the Kingdom.
Unlike the god of death or the Dead King, Lith needed no army or preparation to bring an ancient household to its knees.
To make matters worse, he had taken House Frorl down so quickly that by the time the army and the Mage Association had answered the distress call, all they could do was count the bodies and clean up.
