...A word of warning. There are some who believe Sylvain's murderer must have come from among your number, and that it was an act of revenge.
I should hope this isn't true. I believe last week, Hua Cheng assured me that mid-trial revenge killings would be stopped. I understand if it was the action of a person who needed to secure their hostage and was aware Sylvain's hostage was already secure. Or perhaps there were three shadows, not two. Revenge as a motive is a bit more difficult to tolerate in these circumstances. But I personally am not convinced it came from your group. I only advise that it might be wise to clear this up if there is a more generous explanation.
If some have made the connection of Sylvain Jose Gautier being responsible of Kaeya Alberich's murder, then it doesn't surprise me some would think it might have come from our group. I'm at least confident it wasn't Diluc Ragnvindr. Hostage secured or not, he wouldn't risk killing again after having been possessed once already. Especially when I know Kaeya would not want him to seek revenge and he very well knows that as well.
I do intend to check with them shortly, I'll see if I can learn anything from it. [ he sighs a little. ] I'd understand for someone to target Sylvain for sake of an easy target to secure their hostage as you said. But I suppose we'll see if anything comes from it tomorrow by town meeting.
Good. I understand well why it isn't advisable to advertise these things. If you can confirm that it either didn't come from your group or that it only came from someone under the influence of a shadow, I'll convey that message to the concerned parties.

I agree. There is much we don't want to discuss out in the open, but we must overcome our trepidation.
There is no sensitive time, so I would propose tomorrow.

Tomorrow is a better time than any. I'll work on prepping what I know with Hua Cheng.
Let's work on sorting this situation out with everyone else.
