After discussing some crucial details with Nixere, Izroth agreed to accompany her to the palace ceremony later that night.
The two determined where they would meet up in a few hours. This way, they could make proper preparations before the time of the ceremony.
Nixere's presence could not have come at a better time for Izroth. He had been pondering on how to enter the palace to uncover the identities of Queen Nixpera, King Sonamus, and Mistress Asi. Or, at the very least, two of them.
Izroth understood that as long as he discovered four out of the five roles, then the last one would give itself away. He had already found out that Aurie was the Hunter Venare; therefore, that left three more to identify.
In addition, Izroth planned to take advantage of Hunter Venare's future capture later tonight after the ceremony had ended. He acquired the exact location of the hidden passageway Hunter Venare used to access the palace's back garden from Aurie herself.
