Lester was thinking about Ruth's dream that she told him that day. He was more concerned as it involved Edwin. If their theory was correct, then Ruth might see the future and that meant...
Lester shook his head. He was pacing around in his chamber. Elsie was busy finding more about Painite and Ruth's dreams. She was taking help from her mentor from the Academy.
He had many things on his mind, but he could not discuss all of them with Edwin yet. He already had enough served on his plate, and Lester did not want to add more to it.
Lester punched the window frame in frustration while staring in distance. If only he could solve at least one mystery. The memories of that little girl haunted him, trapped him in guilt.
He had promised her mother that he would find her, but how?
~"My Lord..."~
Lester recognised the voice that was trying to reach him.
~"Yes, I am here."~
