conversations.value:  There was a letter in Achim’s desk, as he had claimed there would be. In it was an explanation for everything that had transpired, along with a confession. As I likely needn’t remind you, demons were powerful beings. If they ever attacked cities in full force, there wouldn’t be much humans could do to fight back. Yet human cities endured—even the empire’s, with their close proximity to demon territory. This was all thanks to the barriers.

No demons can pass through them, no matter how strong they are.” According to Lilly’s explanation, the barriers were formed by concealed magical tools installed around cities. Demons had no hope of getting in without finding the magical tools and breaking them. Socrat’s attempted assassination of the pope was an exception, as teleportation magic cast from within the barrier had been used to bring him in. In other words, we were safe as long as we stayed within Ruhm. No wonder Dorothea could afford to be so careless.

Wary of being poisoned by the empire, we’d been casting detoxification magic on everything we ate, but Achim had found a way around that by gradually mixing nutmeg into our food—a spice that causes organ failure when consumed in large quantities.
