Kham pulled Sebastian aside. “We need to talk.” He handed Sebastian Augustus’ note.Lady Sounshay joined them.  “What happened here?”Kham jabbed a thumb in the direction of the warehouse. “I found that note on Augustus’ body, in there.”Sebastian scanned the letter.  “Venton and Anulee were having a secret affair.” His features slowly twisted in rage. ”She used a visiting dark-kin as an excuse to break up with Venton. In retaliation, Venton blackmailed Anulee into blaming the dark-kin for the murder of a town guard.”“I remember that.” The implications dawned on her.  “The dark-kin was executed for that crime!”“That dark-kin was Lantross.” Sebastian’s face was red.  “Lantross Arnyal. My father.” He handed Sounshay the note. “Just before he was executed, he had another visitor.  Lantross’ brother…my uncle.”“I am issuing a warrant for the arrest of Venton Zasfar.” Sounshay barked orders at the guards. She turned back to Sebastian. “I will personally bring it to his door tonight, even if I have to storm his manor and fling his vile sleeping carcass out of his own bed!”“We can handle that,” began Kham.“No!” snarled Sounshay.  “I need you to go to the Splintered Oak and bring Anulee to me immediately.  Perjury is also a crime.” Beldin’s wounds had been healed enough that he was able to stand.  He limped over to them.Sounshay handed Sebastian a writ to bring her into custody.  “Hurry.  There is no telling how many more innocent lives are in danger.”</blockquote>
