Capturing Liam

"Young man, do you wish to see your fate?"

Lucas stopped in his tracks and looked at the old man. He looked for a good few seconds and analysed him, but couldn't make out anything about him. He really seemed like an ordinary beggar to him and nothing else. However, what this beggar said made him seem like an astrologer of some sort.

Lucas knew that fate couldn't be calculated in this world and destiny couldn't be measured. The reason was, of course, because of the presence of that one being. The astrologers in this world were jobless, and this once-revered profession was now regarded as nothing but a scam.

Lucas, however, could feel that this old man in front of him wasn't someone ordinary. How? He had no idea. It was an intuition of his which he got from years and years of experience. And also, it wouldn't hurt to listen to what he was saying, as even if he was a scammer, there would hardly be any loss on Lucas's part.
