"They're not Astorians!"
Marcus Monroe's words were a rude awakening for Paige Summers. All the little things that had felt off about that group of men in black suddenly made sense with this possibility.
"That's right, that's it." Paige recalled the scene. "The way they shrugged and folded their arms—there were subtle differences from how we do it... So that's it. That's why. They're not Astorians at all!"
Marcus Monroe said, "Yeah, it just occurred to me. It's very likely they're Eldorians. They're generally taller and larger than Astorians. Of course, that's not a hard and fast rule, but the fact that they never show their faces confirms it."
For non-Astorians to appear on Astorian soil at a time like this, stirring up all sorts of trouble—to say they weren't part of some conspiracy was impossible!
Paige Summers looked at Marcus Monroe, who nodded. "I've already had my men send this information back to Central City."
