Chapter 211 - 210. Enter A New Pawn (1)
We had rode a few minutes away from the mountain tribes of the crest of the boulder and I looked at Lyall who was at the driver’s seat.
"Lyall," I called, "What did you find?"
Last night amidst the celebrations I had given him a task to find out about Lisana from the drunk people. With their senses dulled and it would have been easier to coax things out of them. Hopefully, he had the information that I was looking form
"Lisana is the daughter of Poras and Tanya, she is a healing mage, Master."
My eyebrows jumped as I nodded and asked him to continue.
"Around half a month ago, some high official from the Main Temple of the capital had arrived at the tribe. They had come to know about Lisana’s ability so, they wanted to take her with them. Poras and others resisted so..."
"So?"
"I don’t really know what they did but that official talked with Lisana for some time and then she agreed to go with them. She even said that from that time onwards she was not a part of the tribe and that she will follow the Saint and become a priestess who brings salvation to the people."
I hummed and he added, "The men who told me about it said that Lisana wasn’t the kind of person to abandon her people. She loved staying at the tribe and everyone loved her, she was bound to be the next leader of the tribe but then... She made this strange decision which shocked everyone and shattered Poras’s trust. Since then, he forbade his people to talk about Lisana. He basically hates the Temple and the people who belong from there."
"They must have threatened her or coerced her into making that decision or she might not have gone so calmly," he added making me hum.
"So, they go and collect the people that they gather information about." I mumbled.
