Chapter 425: A Request for Coin
Lyria's POV
I turned to Duke Valenridge.
"Might you h-help me discover w-where these commoners are t-to be released? And w-whether they are r-released at all?"
He gave a nod. "That presents no difficulty. I shall bring you the intelligence you seek before this undertaking begins."
I nodded, grateful once more for his aid, and then spoke again.
"There i-is one m-more matter," I said. "You m-must take the greatest c-care. I have no d-doubt there shall be g-guards set to watch over t-these commoners."
Duke Valenridge inclined his head.
"You need trouble yourself over that not at all, curious wolf. Leave the matter to me."
I nodded once more, grateful, and then spoke on.
"Though, t-there is a-another r-request I h-have of y-you."
Duke Valenridge regarded me for a long moment.
"You ask a great deal of me," he said, and then sighed. "Very well, curious wolf, I am entirely at your disposal. What is it you require?"
