Illusion Oratory

"This is a dark magic known only in legends... What could Reda be trying to do with it...?"

Reda was nowhere to be found in the oratory, but she had left behind numerous traces.

Records about the legendary black magic Scarlotus, a risky transaction with a Shugo merchant, and more... The ominous violet glow emanating from the forbidden Scarlotus tome was undeniable proof that the spell had been recently attempted.

Why was Reda trying to use dark magic? Nothing is certain until she can be asked directly. The Dawn legionnaires will seek out the Shugo Merchants who traded with Reda, hoping to gain new leads.
