Roen studied the pages, her eyes skimming over the contents. The ones written in code she set aside, but the alchemical notes… they caught her eye. Not only because it was written plainly, perhaps the author felt that technical details would not translate well in short hand, but some pages also described various procedures that involved magitek. Roen was no expert in the field, but having been raised by a scientist whose work primarily involved Garlean technology, it was impossible not to have absorbed some knowledge in her early years.
So, this scientist that The Redeemers had employed, was also familiar with Garlean technology? Valencourt had mentioned that The Court did bring in an alchemist as part of their efforts to eradicate the dragon influence from Spoken blood. It was with her research along with the relic and knowledge presumably from Khadai’s people, that they had made a breakthrough.
When Roen got to the middle of the page, she paused. She read the passage twice. It mentioned trials using the knowledge of the Void and creatures therein. The findings on it were succinctly put, it was deemed too unstable a factor. But the fact that it was used in their studies at all…
“Do me a favor and keep an ear to the ground for me, would you?†Delial had asked her many moons ago regarding any matters involving the Voidsent in Ishgard. Grimsong was on the hunt for a particular Garlean scientist then. Roen’s eyes narrowed.
Could it be?
She glanced back at Khadai then the Marquis and the female knight. He was right. Just the two of them would not be able to expose The Redeemers. At least not yet. But since this knowledge was obtained from the two prisoners tied in front of them, Khadai and she had very little time to act, before what they learned here became also known to The Redeemers. No matter how they dealt with the bodyguard and the Marquis, they still had perhaps a sun at most, before whatever was marked on the map would become useless.
“Then we move on this now,†she rolled up the papers and tucked it into her pack.
