Right now, Fion was of mixed opinions. On one hand, Fion Meyer actually existed in the records, so coming down here wasn't a waste of time after all. On the other hand, the demented little girl in his dreams seemed to be telling the truth. That probably wouldn't end well for him. Regardless, he shook his head and gathered together all of the documents he had found related to the girl before sitting down to read them over.

From what he had discovered, Fion Meyer was the daughter of two army sergeants that had fought in the Talentless Strife. The Meyer family had once been a renowned family like the Seyours...were. Only that they were more famed for their magic than their military service. The Meyer family's magical might had once been passed down through selective inbreeding, but that practice seemed to have stopped a few generations before Fion's. Their mages had the particular quirk of only being able to use a single element of magic, completely unable to use any other. Of course, the significance of this didn't escape Fion. He himself was incapable of using any elemental magic besides wind. 

The Meyer line had died with Fion Meyer, who had been left an orphan after both of her parents were slain during the final weeks of the Talentless Strife. She had been placed under the care of one Gael Ericsson before being transported out of Cykes to the town of Burrow, which had been constructed to be a refugee shelter for victims of the Strife. However, the girl had never made it to Burrow. A bridgeside accident pushed the carriage into the river. The bodies were recovered by a hunting party led by a mage by the name of...Tanith Seyour. She had been unable to resuscitate the girl, and personally oversaw her burial in the Meyer family cemetery north of Cykes out of a sense of responsibility for the lives lost in the accident. 

"What." He uttered out loud in disbelief. That didn't make sense. As far as he knew, his mother had never used any magic whatsoever. Hell, the woman used an ordinary steel sword rather than talentium. And yet this report claimed that Tanith Seyour had been a mage. This would need looking into, right alongside the Meyer thing. Fortunately, he could do both right here in the census archives. The Meyer report had also mentioned the girl being taken care of by a Gael Ericsson. That was a lead he could look into here. If this person was still alive, Fion could track him down later. Knowing his luck, though, Ericsson probably died in the attack last night. 

And he would have to stay here to search the records on his mother anyway. With the entire Seyour family deceased, or at best missing, Fion couldn't exactly ask any of them if his mother had actually been a mage. With this in mind, he began searching for records on both Gael Ericsson and Tanith Seyour.
