After receiving a distressed communication from his assistant Fornswitthe, Tedor rushes to find him but arrives only to discover that Fornswitthe has been fatally wounded by a mysterious assailant. Compelled by a mix of duty and personal responsibility, Tedor vows to find the woman connected to this tragedy, Laniq Hadrien.
