Truths and Secrets (Part 1)
Duchy of Essagor, Vastor Household.
After Zinya's marriage, Kamila had made the habit of having lunch with her sister and dining with the Ernas. She wanted to keep an eye on how Zinya's relationship with Vastor progressed, but also to be kept posted about the condition of Lith's life force and his life as an Awakened.
Kamila was deeply worried for both of them, even though for completely different reasons. Zinya had no idea that her husband was actually an Awakened, a war criminal, and one of the most wanted men in the Griffon Kingdom under his alias of the Master.
Kamila was afraid that his past might suddenly catch up with him, trampling her sister in the process. Even worse, Zinya might discover it on her own and run away to Lutia, where Orpal would sooner or later attack her again.
