The first time Kallen had seen them; right after taking the Dragonborn princess's life, he had been shocked. This weapon was far beyond his initial evaluation. It wasn't just a well-crafted Saint artifact; it was something else entirely.
This all cemented his theory about the Dragonborn race being special and highly mysterious in some way. But to hand a weapon of this caliber to a 1st Ascension ascendant? That was as insane.
His gaze darkened as he pieced things together. He still didn't know why they had attacked the Crimson family, but there was no doubt in his mind that the Dragonborn were behind the operation.
The way the two other assailants had behaved around the princess made that clear. And only now did he realize just how their stupidity, or rather, their servitude, had saved his life.
