Naida deals with illusions, does that count as mindforce? Also can Kira implant memories or use such an illusion as to appear as someone else? Those are the only ones I can think of for the Kayla situation. The letter situation is also questionable. There's only a few that we know of who know his secret. But why would they send the letter...
She thinks she wants to see the destruction of the Bloodburn Kingdom, but ultimately she wants a safe future for her people. Who knows, maybe she will live to see that and the fall of certain house(s), and they are mistaking this for the fall of the kingdom itself.
I hope Stacy steps forward still a bit disheveled from what Ray did to her. And that Arthur tries to pin it on Asher only for her to correct him on what happened. Because right now Arthur is an annoying B and needs a bit of a wake up call. He's kind of getting one, but something like Stacy coming forward would probably be more effective.
Cedric's mother killed herself back when Rowena was doing her first Reaping Quest. Specifically Cedric was the target, Rowena possessed his mom, and his mom fought against the possession and committed suicide to prevent her body from being used to kill him.
His bright blue eyes? plural??
I'm expecting this to be Hecate to be wrecking things due to Abaddon messing up her plans and sacrificing her followers. Now if she actually has good will towards humanity or not, that needs to be seen. But the subversion and destruction of the Sacred Tirtha (who predicted the coming of The Overlord, aka Van) is undoubtedly going to mess up any plans, good or evil, that she might have had.
I see he is quite proficient at lying. Weaving in the half-truth that it could destabilize things, while intentionally leaving out that it could destabilize the BAD things that him and his lackies have been doing.
I think two things here. The first is that this reaffirms my thoughts that Aira didn't betray Cedric but was most likely pregnant and did what she had to to save their child. The second is that it seems her brother was specifically raised in a manner to be a "face" of good but easily manipulated by those in power.
"Why are you helping us" oh I don't know, because it keeps my kingdom alive while also destroying my enemy whom you also happen to loathe? Like what else is she expecting him to say lol. Though maybe after doing all this the Drakaris Kingdom can be reworked to not be such scum, who knows.
