"By the way… I know this is foolish, but… since you were close to Lucien, I wanted to know if he ever mentioned my Aunt."
It was only after a brief moment of silence that I could mention this.
The atmosphere still hasn't recovered from our last conversation, so this is an attempt of mine to shift the focus. It's also a way to ask the question that has been gnawing at me for some time now.
"Who's that?" The Captain asks with a raised brow.
"Aunt Leila… Well, she was his wife."
"Ahh… No." His response is rather curt, and he shakes his head almost regrettably. "The truth is that Lucien had multiple identities in multiple kingdoms. It's one of the reasons he was so difficult to track down to this place."
"Surely that means the Randalorion Kingdom holds some significance to him!"
Nodding, Alistair smiles wryly. "Yes, but it's not a positive one."
"…."
