Around the sa ti, the 98th Floor of the Tower, an Undisclosed Location, Headquarters of the Inquisition.
"So, have the information been verified thoroughly?"
The man who was speaking was the Lord General Inquisitor of the Inquisition, Ardyn Tiberrius, who was now investigating the case of the Magisterium plotting against them during the attempted assassination of the Holy Son of the Hall of Kadath.
Naturally, the higher-ups of the Hall were aware of the fact that Samiel Zentaur survived the fight with the Pirate King Wentworth Ruthland on the 11th Floor of the Tower. Still, from the evidence gathered, it was clear that the Pirate King Wentworth Ruthland was soone who was sent there by the Magisterium.
With Anti-Void weaponry that was specifically crafted to destroy anyone with the Eldritch Origin, sothing that was especially deadly to soone like Samiel Zentaur, who was basically more or less an Eldritch Creature.
Surprisingly, when the news reached the Hall of Kadath, everything went quiet, contrary to the expectations of many, because many people would anticipate that, that the old monster Faulhaber would erupt in rage and it would be another Starfall...
No... it was silent... but anyone with a bit of brain could tell that this was just silence before the storm and that the storm would be very strong and would blow many of them away...
"Yes, it is... our sources within the Magisterium confird that this was part of the wider plot of so radial faction within the Magisterium that wanted to obtain Bloodline Source of Eldritch from the Holy Son and also Bloodline Source of the Silvermoon Lineage."
Ardyn Tiberrius didn't say anything because he wasn't much surprised by hearing this; in fact, it was sothing that he could expect very well.
"Not surprising in this case... Magisterium has always been eyeing the position of the 1st Gate and the Majins are investing an extraordinary amount of resources into the Magisterium for it to succeed... but this may represent an opportunity..."
Majin was a Transcendent Path for the so-called Magic Gods; even though they were not Gods, but they were rather embodints of so of the Magic Rules and fundantal aspects of the Magic.
There were not many of them in the first place because not many people embarked on this Path of Transcendence due to extrely harsh requirents, but the ones that ascended through becoming Majin were very powerful.
"Then we need to contact the Nesser Dynasty; it seems... the pointed ears are going to be pissed pretty much about this revelation..."
The Lord General Inquisitor then typed sothing on his Holo-Brain before he looked at the subordinate who was giving him the report about the situation.
"Is anyone else related to this issue, or was this just the action of the Magisterium alone?"
He then asked as he stopped writing because there was one thing that didn't really sit up with him from the background of the Wentworth Ruthland, who was, according to all reports, a forr nobleman of the Avalon Kingdom.
He didn't believe even for a second that the Avalon Kingdom wasn't sohow involved in the entire thing because it was highly improbable, and as soone who had led the Inquisition of the Hall of Kadath for several centuries, he didn't believe in accidents.
Accidents were just elaborately crafted plans that gave the feeling of that they were natural.
"Yes...there was so communication between the Magisters and the Avalon Kingdom one month prior, but our source is not that high in the hierarchy to know about the exact content of the eting because it was only for the Magisters and their most loyal."
As expected, the Avalon Kingdom was involved in the matter...
Though it was sothing that many people would expect and at the sa ti, this would only give them reason to act against the Avalon Kingdom and drag the Nesser Dynasty into this ss because, apparently, it was also the attack on their Crown Princess.
And the elves were a pretty arrogant race, especially the Highborne and Silvermoon Elves; they would never forgive any slight, not to ntion sothing on this scale as attacking the Heir to the Imperial Throne of the Nesser Dynasty.
"Compile everything into a comprehensive report and send it to within the next ten minutes; I will go to the Hall Master to report our findings."
Ardyn Tiberrius was Lord General Inquisitor of the Hall of Kadath for a very long ti, and in a situation like these, he knew that they needed to act faster than the limits allowed and without making even the slightest mistake.
If everything went well, they would have an opportunity to move against the Magisterium, sothing that the radical wings among the higher-ups of the Hall of Kadath, especially so of the more warlike Cardinals and mbers of the Choir, advocated for a very long ti already.

The 98th Floor of the Tower, Main Temple of the Hall of Kadath, The Throne Room
"What are the results of the investigations, Ardyn?"
Hall Master nuhyutt Faulhaber asked with a calm voice, but anyone hearing him could hear the anger behind his words. There were not many people within the Throne Room; aside from the honor guards from the Templar Knight Order, there were only a few Cardinals and Archbishops present.
But nevertheless, everyone was anticipating the results of the discussion between the two n because it could very well an that the Hall of Kadath would be going to war. Sothing that wasn't present for a very, very long ti already.
"Everything is complied here, Your Holiness. According to the evidence and information gathered, we ca to the conclusion that the Magisterium wanted to obtain the Bloodline Source of the Eldritch from the Holy Son and the Bloodline Source of the Silvermoon from the Crown Princess of the Nesser Dynasty, or at least, that was the plan. With the explosion that the Holy Son did, all of their plans evaporated straight into nothingness."
Ardyn Tiberrius reported as he then passed the file to the Hall Master, who started reading it very quickly while simultaneously listening to the report from the Lord General Inquisitor.
Now, hearing that, it was clear to everyone gathered here that the Hall would need to make sothing grand to exact revenge, solidify their status and so on... many other things would be accounted for there, but it was also an unprecended opportunity.
It was a very long ti since there was so large-scale conflict between factions of the 13 Gates.
Such conflicts were exceedingly rare, and even the Underdark was constantly warring against the Nesser Dynasty wasn't launching any large-scale offensive.
So this could be the first ti in a very long ti since so of the factions within the 13 Gates waged war against each other.
It would be...
Wait for it...

Legendary.
