Living and Undead (Part 1)

Vladion brought them to a living room with golden-painted decorations covering its white walls. In the middle of the room, there was a long oval table surrounded by padded cherrywood chairs.

A single chandelier enchanted with light magic illuminated the place due to the walls spreading the light evenly.

"Please, have a seat." The Firstborn had the chairs move back with a wave of his hand while the Emperor Beasts shapeshifted into a humanoid form. "What did Haug tell you of our problem?"

Lith handed Vladion the communication amulet with all the information and shared with him Kalla's hypothesis about the kidnappings being linked to the practice of Forbidden Magic.

"You know everything, then." He sighed. "I asked the Council for help back when the disappearances started, but they refused unless I revealed them the position of all the branches of the Undead Courts I know."

"Why did you refuse?" Scarlett said with a scoff.
