statement confused Ethan. Ethan slowly pulled up a stool to the table and sat down. The Lurikeen seemed to grow uncomfortable to his presence. Ethan asked the boy "What troubles ye lad?" The Lurikeen moved his hand revealing a name in his staff… The name of Ugmug.

Ethan did not immediately understand the depths of this but then realized
