Arc 26Lumian’s Tavern Tale
Lumian entertained the Cordu tavern with a fabricated morgue story before Ryan Koss and his companions met him. Pierre explained that Aurora had brought Lumian to Cordu and given him his name and surname, while Lumian said he had forgotten his original name.
- Lumian told a grim story about a morgue worker who found a strange mark on a dead colleague and dreamed of a vast fog.
- Lumian admitted the tale was made up, and the tavern regulars laughed at Ryan Koss for believing it.
- Lumian said his sister Aurora wrote the stories he told, and Ryan introduced his companions, Valentine and Léa.
- Ryan warned Lumian that his surname, Lee, recalled the feared Frank Lee, then bought drinks for Lumian and Pierre.
- Pierre explained that Aurora had brought thirteen-year-old Lumian to Cordu five years earlier and given him the surname Lee and the name Lumian.
- Lumian said he had forgotten what he was originally called and drank his Green Fairy without embarrassment.
