In the dimly lit inn room, the soft sound of Lyra's peaceful slumber filled the air. Sam lay on his bed, his mind buzzing with thoughts and plans. The revelation about the stolen spells embedded in the city's magical devices had ignited a determination within him. Just as Lyra had received the brooch from her brother, others must have acquired their magical artifacts from some source—a workshop, perhaps, or a clandestine dealer.

With this in mind, Sam formulated a plan. He would venture out into the bustling streets of Thaumapolis and ask random people about the origins of these enchanted items, following any leads that emerged.

Though it seemed like a crude and uncertain strategy, it was far better than sitting idle, lost in confusion. Sam understood that it might take quite some time to narrow it down, but he was driven by a relentless curiosity and a desire to unravel the mysteries surrounding the stolen spells.

With a resolute determination, he resolved to take action and navigate

    As Sam exited the shop, he found Lyra looking restless, searching for something. Their eyes met, and Lyra's expression was a mixture of concern and annoyance. "Where have you been? Why did you leave me without a word?" Lyra bombarded him with questions, her voice rising with each word. Sam scratched the back of his head sheepishly, trying to come up with a plausible excuse. "Ah, I, uh, just needed to run a quick errand," he stammered, hoping she wouldn't press further. Lyra folded her arms across her chest, her gaze piercing. "You could have at least told me. I woke up and you were gone. It's not safe for me to be wandering around alone in a city like this!" Sam winced at her reproach, realizing he had indeed been thoughtless in leaving without informing her. "I'm sorry, Lyra. I'll make sure to keep you informed next time," he promised, hoping to appease her. Lyra sighed, her frustration evident. "Just don't do it again, okay? Now, what did you buy from that shop?" Sam hesitated

Who sent you?" Sam hesitated, momentarily thrown off guard by the guard's probing questions. "Me?" he stammered. "Have you just been transferred to Thaumapolis?" the guard pressed further, his skepticism evident. At a sudden stroke of realization, Sam understood the source of the guard's suspicion. He must have mistaken Sam for one of the Flammenherz officers due to the stolen uniform he was wearing. "Yes," Sam replied, forcing a strained smile. "I have an important message that I need to deliver to Ly—I mean, the prince." "Who sent the message?" the guard inquired, his scrutiny unwavering. "I'm afraid I can't tell you that, sir
