Heritage of Cyador (Saga of Recluce book 18)
“Had Veraan’s father Apollyn actually created a chaos-based poison for the tainted tonic … or had Veraan just used a fast-acting tincture of some sort? And why would he have done that? Lerial can certainly understand why Alaphyn would have wanted Aenslem to order the deadly tonic directly from Myrapol House, but why would Veraan have agreed to it? For golds? The sum would have to have been quite significant. Or perhaps, in an odd way, Veraan felt that the death of an Afritan merchanter would not... hurt Cigoerne … or more likely, would reduce rivals to Myrapol House.
And then there was Maesoryk … who had to have been involved in the explosions and the invasion landings at his tileworks, but with no proof … except indirectly … Lerial bolts upright in his bunk, recalling what Aenslem had said the afternoon before about Maesoryk—two chaos-mages around him all the time. “Of course,” he murmurs to himself, “the fog … the unnatural chaos-caused fog.” The fog that had enabled the ships to land had to have been created by a mage on land—at the tileworks.MoreLess
