I know of a case where Lord Beneger simply grabbed a child from his home because his parents reported him as ‘too gifted,’ and well, he was never heard from again.” An Ironic example considering you’re hearing this from the child himself. But that's your question answered, more or less.
“One more thing I wish to ask, do you know of an Inquisitor Leontine?”
Asher groans, “I don't want to talk about her. Siegvald, you do it.”
“Um, but I don't know that much? I hear she's a pretty capable Inquisitor and a real ‘old guard’ if you well.”
*Snrk* “Yeah, she’s old all right.”
“She's hunted down quite a few Strangers, so that's a testament to her skills, I think. She's also known as the ‘Lioness’ because of her skills-”
“Because her name sounds like Lion, that's why. Look, Lorina, she's about as pure as a puritan gets. If you think everyone is a Stranger like she does, you’re bound to find at least a few. Been trying to get her off my ass for years. Unluckily, she's spending some leave in the Capital right now, so the chances I bump into her aren't zero.”
“If you try to avoid her so much, then you should at least know where she's staying.”
“Yeah, west side of the city. If you know where the Ravenett Estate is, it’s near there. She lives in the building with the tower. Good luck if you’re trying to find her, though not that I envy you, especially because she no doubt knows your reputation.”
“My reputation?” Is he talking about the results of the Honor Duel?
“Lorina, you were bunkmates with Marie. You can put together the pieces.”
Ah. “Ah.” While you've never officially interacted with the “factions” of the Inquisition, there is no doubt most would label you as a “radical” one who works with Strangers instead of executing them. Though you don't doubt the “puritans” would love a chance to try and convert you to their side, you are, after all, Lorina de Lindan, the Kingdom’s Princess. “I see, thank you both,” you say with a curtsy, causing Siegfried to have another near-panic for courtly manner and Asher to shrug you off and take another gulp from one of these bottles.
