Namtar
Lucien watched Lithira as she slept, her face peaceful despite the faint trail of dried tears on her cheeks and the puffiness around her eyes.
She had been through so much, yet her expression now held a quiet relief. She was alright, at least for the moment.
He quietly rose from the bed and sat on its edge, his thoughts drifting back to Lithira's past, especially to Namtar.
'Why was he always there?'
In every story Lucien had heard, Namtar played a small yet pivotal role, always lurking in the background, creating chaos.
'How does he have the power to turn people into monsters?'
And how did he know that Lithira is a terra dragon?
The more Lucien thought about it, the more he questioned whether Lithira and Yuda's meeting was truly a coincidence.
What if Namtar had orchestrated it all? The same with Kingu?
"Damn… Who the hell is that man?" Lucien sighed, frustration gnawing at him.
