[My companions couldn’t find the Prudencians either, so this is necessary. The Princess knew this, which is why she approached Her Majesty. It could be a ploy by Crux, possibly even using the Princess herself. But as long as the locations they provide are accurate, we can handle the rest later.]
"It does offer significant advantages. However, we must remain cautious in case it’s a trap. Are you certain you haven’t heard any suspicious thoughts from them?" Alwin inquired.
Arabella understood Alwin’s vigilance.
After all, caution was paramount; the Prudencians could easily be used as bait to lure them in.
By now, everyone in Crux likely knew that Valeria sought the Prudencians’ return, making the location of even one Prudencian in Crux extremely valuable.
Consequently, many feigned to have had such precious information to claim rewards, only to provide false locations in the end.
Arabella had already considered such a possibility, which was why she insisted on verifying a location first.
Despite having heard the truth through their thoughts, it was prudent to show they wanted to ensure that Princess Seraphina and her faction genuinely possessed the information.
