The Black Shadow guards who had been scouring the city of Amarthea to find the huge and monstrous etcher which had managed to escape its bounds, stumbled upon a unique scene when they arrived at the St. Claire Estate.
True to their reputation of being the best, they had taken only half an hour to locate the etcher and their search had finally come to an end.
As they sat on a branch of a nearby tree, they secretly observed the child with the Captain of the Red Scorpion Knights along with the two horses.
The Captain and the child sat on a large boulder and watched the horses drinking water from a stream through which flowed clear and pristine water.
The presence of the Captain at this place did not pique their interest as much as the events that took place after this.
The more they watched in silence, the more they felt a panic rising in their hearts.
