LOREN
Phoebe could implore Loren all she wanted. Even if this was the last piece of the boy’s father—and by extension, the healer’s brother, which the Launceleyn felt was more than a bit of the problem here—he couldn’t assume it wasn’t enchanted somehow, especially because he knew that Roana had at least one ring with magic. If this was the only piece of jewelry here, then he had to assume this was the light ring.
Taking the daggers, the summoner held out his other hand. ”I’m sorry. And if you’re telling the truth, I will return it in short order. But we had an agreement, Phoebe.” His voice came out gently. However, if the midwife made him resort to force after he’d played by her rules, he wouldn’t hesitate. As she explained what the box was, he frowned. ”Alright.” It seemed harmless enough, and Ludo had come up multiple times in relation to it. Plus that was one god Loren did not want to tangle with.
