Adam knew something was wrong.
But he had never expected to find an illusion spell powerful enough to cover an entire town.
Who cast this?
His eyes trembled, studying the faint distortions he could see with the help of the Lotus.
And what are they trying to hide?
The refugees claimed that Mackledar had been attacked by orcs or bandits. Yet none of them could identify their attackers. They had all escaped thanks to Mayor Faulkner's men, who had led them to safety.
Now, he found an entire town covered by an illusion so potent that he couldn't see through it.
Meaning, it was at least a Transcendent-level spell.
Could the refugees be lying?
No. That shouldn't be possible. There are too many of them.
Unless…
Adam's thoughts came to a halt.
Unless someone had deliberately shaped their accounts.
But why?
Who would go to such lengths to conceal what had happened to this small town?
