Clue | Dragonsteel Nexus 2024

I wanted to find out some information about Odium. A friend of mine said they could help, and we arranged to meet. When I went to our usual meeting place, there was no sign of my friend. Thinking that perhaps they might have been delayed, I waited. After quite some time, a tall man approached and handed a letter, sealed with my friend’s signet. On the outside of one of them it said, “Read first.” I opened it and read the message.  

“Apparently someone knew that he eventually moved. We have always thought that Odium stayed trapped underground. Don’t you?”  

I was a bit confused. Surely, my friend didn’t think that Odium was trapped. I looked up at the tall man. He had a wry smile on his face as he handed me an identical letter. On the outside of it, were the words, “Read last.” Opening it, I found the following message. 

“I ran off to find where friends talk.”

Realizing what my friend meant I gathered my things to go and find the next clue.
