It finally occurred to Emery that the wolf patriarch had gone missing on his quest to look for the missing Altus Dresden. It turned out the man had spent the last three years investigating the matter, following the clues that led to the former headmaster's whereabouts.
"I found out that Master Altus was locked up deep inside the elf headquarters. But just weeks ago, he was transferred to this abandoned planet." The patriarch's face turned dark as he said, "Only later, when it was already too late, did I find out that his transfer was related to and had a significant role in the elves' plans of destroying the Magus Academy."
Unfortunately, the patriarch was behind the enemy lines at the time, so he was unable to warn the Alliance or the academy about this. It was only with the help of the serpent clan, who play neutral between the two sides, that the patriarch managed to get the intel out.
