"Which Quincy family could it possibly be? Obviously, I'm talking about the Quincys—one of the four most powerful families in the Capital."

As Tyson finished speaking, he turned and saw Celia's face had gone completely pale. He quickly stood up and asked, "Celia, are you alright? Are you feeling sick?"

"No… I just didn't expect you to reach out to the Quincys. So, have you… have you managed to get in touch with anyone from their family yet?"
