[Liem had gone to search for Manon’s shard at Yima’s behest, and he hadn’t thought anything of bringing it back to her at the time, even though her warning about its possible corruption had seemed odd. Why would he hesitate to bring back a Zenith shard to its faction of origin? Surely that was the safest place for it.

But now, he isn’t so sure. Manon had been a Zenith shard-bearer, and yet he had run to Meridian. Why? And what had happened between then and when they’d encountered him in Alenroux to make him end up there, in the state they’d found him? There might be a good reason why he hadn’t stayed in Meridian after all. Or he might simply have left to avoid harming anyone else because of his Discord.

Either way, it’s one of the only leads they currently have.

He did, [Liem agrees.]

The Tribune might know more. If we brought the shard to him, perhaps he could be convinced to tell us.

[Liem lets his hands rest in his lap, leaning back against the Tree’s roots as he ponders.]

Lady Yima won’t be pleased when she finds out. But… I don’t think I was going to offer her my service again, in any case.
