Calamity Priest

"Damn-" As the grayish-white fog dissipated before her, Neph's expression turned strange. "At this rate, I might really end up becoming Amon."

The Church of Storms' investigation was not entirely unexpected. Ever since the painting at Bansy Harbor had vanished, Neph had prepared herself for her actions during the Backlund Great Smog Incident to be dug up again.

But their angle of approach surprised her a little.

After thinking it through carefully, however, Neph understood the reasoning. Once Elland reported her information, the Church of Storms could consult its records and confirm that she had traveled from Backlund to Bansy that day, then used the same trick to leave Bansy after the incident.
