   Summary

   "You’re hurt,” he whispered. The way Vanyel reacted, the blood Tylendel was now sure stained his clothes- the mage must have hurt him. Maybe even Wester, too. “But there was a ransom for you, why would they-”

   “It isn’t real,” Vanyel said, his voice empty. He looked up at Tylendel with dull eyes, his cheeks stained with tears. “The ransom. They- they only wanted my aunt away from Haven.”

   au where Wester Leshara realizes that Tylendel is the key to controlling his brother, and the only way to get to him is to get Savil out of the way first.
