Misunderstanding

Meanwhile, the Baier family and the Mouse Company continued to be estranged due to Alric's previous incident.

Alric's family was putting pressure on this organization due to their failure to find clear clues as to who had acted against this young master. But things had not gotten out of hand with one side acting more seriously than they should.

The Baier patriarch was furious about what had happened to his son, even more so considering that Alric had lost his manhood. But still, he would not come at the Mouse Company with destructive force without further proof.

The Mouse Company might be an underworld force, but the Baier patriarch knew about some of the troublesome connections of that organization!

With that said, other than minor disagreements, and an end to friendly communication between the parties, no major fighting had taken place in this period since Lothur's action.
