Lyanna fixed her eyes on the mountain of documents in front of her.
Before the arrival of the teams from the other worlds, Lyanna had made an odd request to her assistant: Bring everything we have on anyone of importance in the city to me.
Though bewildered, she had obeyed and gathered everything. It was odd, with mana contracts, one shouldn't have to worry about betrayal anymore.
Even the leaders of other worlds were under contract. Planting spies in their ranks would breach this; hence, it was simply impossible for there to be enemy spies.
'He's done it before.'
Lyanna could recall the scene like it was yesterday. Though she hadn't been strong enough to attend, she had watched the meeting between Atticus, Magnus, and leaders of the other races.
During it, they had forced him to sign a mana contract binding him to the alliance. However, during the attack on the military camp, he'd simply breached the contract without any repercussions.
'They're not absolute.'
