The Blood red-cloaked guy looked at the burning house and the screams. He instantly ran towards the mansion.
There are many thoughts running through his mind. He just had a conversation about this arsonist burning their people down with Ragad.
Since Ragad is a relatively important guy in the faction and he is alive till now, they thought that Sam and his backers have some reservations against attacking someone who has some significant influence.
But it turned out, he doesn't care.
Right after they had a discussion about making a move on them, they attacked. He didn't even get the time to get out of the place before the attack happened.
There is a great possibility that their plan was heard and this is the answer to that.
