It bears Thesios seal, and I was told it involves sorcerythat alone condemns him.

There were too many dangerous variables in this equation.
"aldo, no one can be left alive in that camp, do you understand? Not even Thesio.

It looks like our kind has a chance now.
Lets go," Aldo pulled him along to join the others.
A flame of hope ignited in his heart.
