Jazdia dismounted from the horse and caressed the animals' mane, still continuing the conversation with Solomon.

[color=ec008c]"Now you mentioned it, they do seem like a sibling. Though the maid was not as 'golden' as the admiral. Well, I did ask her about their relationship, and what is she to him." [/color]

"And her answer?" 

[color=ec008c]"Just a mere servant, she said."[/color] Jazdia lifted a hand to let it bathe in the afternoon sunray and massaged her fingers as she continued. [color=ec008c]"If you ask me, her soul was not of the deceiving type, but she was telling an incomplete truth. Don't take my word for it though. It is safer to assume that she is also a Delving."[/color] 

Despite saying that, Jazdia assessed that Solomon's theory didn't seem very cogent. If you are looking for someone who can influence someone with their power, that would be Baker. The Delvings' power seemed to be revolved around the barrier and utilization of cleansing magic. Usually, that kind of element would come with extra features like spell nullifiers, to mana siphoning. 

But that was just a wild guess based on books she read a long time ago in the academy. A useful knowledge if you want to brag about your magical savviness amongst the commoners. Outdated and unreliable in the field application. 

	“Then again, from all I’ve heard, he may have finally fell victim to his own emotional turmoil." said Solomon, returning to the topic they had earlier. "He may have been suffering from internal conflict this entire time, and we failed to notice in our ignorance.”

The elf shook her head and stopped flexing her finger. It was apparent that Jazdia disliked the words Solomon had chosen and uttered, but she expressed that in her usual monotone. 

[color=ec008c]"If we need someone to blame for his self-inflicted demise, that would be the man himself who craved an easy way out. I am sorry for the harshness of my words, but I have no respect for those who ended their life like that, no matter what words are used to twist it. Self-sacrifice, for the greater good, better to die honorable than to live in shame. That's hogwash all of it. Life is precious no matter what, and you should cherish your own."[/color]
