After they had indulged in some delicious foods and drinks rich in magical energy, and simply chatted with each other, Evelyn and her companions sat down for a serious discussion.
The first order of business was assessing their current goals.
Obviously, the major one was fully destroying the Tyrannis Union, but Lucia had told Evelyn that they were still keeping that a secret from Maeve.
Lucia had instead told her that their objective in infiltrating the Miris Sect had been to search for friends among beasts that had been captured by the Tyrannis Union.
Technically this was not a lie, though it was really only a secondary objective, at best.
Still, whether Maeve actually believe the story Lucia had fed her or not hardly mattered.
She was clearly furious with the Deamhain Sect destroying what should have been her new home and harming her great aunt who had done everything in she could to help Maeve escape her dangerous family situation in the Urstug Federation.
