"Arthur is in Goscht country," Arlo said. "He has been hiding there."
"Goscht country?" Deryl raised his brows. "Is he looking for Elise's family backup?"
"That's what my father and I think."
Elise came from Goscht country. She was from an old family in that country, whose members were prominent figures.
"However, Elise held no real power within her family." Deryl leaned against his chair. He squinted his eyes, as if he recalled Elise's last moment. "She was born out of wedlock and was not the favorite daughter or granddaughter."
"Still, she is part of the Raven family. Her name was registered as such." Arlo poured a glass of whiskey and gulped it down. "We need to be careful."
Hazel listened to their conversation silently, her eyes downcast, as she stared at the tiles under her feet.
