Molde

Biography

Revenge through false intelligence

Molde came after Linley to avenge his son, but direct confrontation exposed the difference between an ordinary Lord Prefect and a Paragon. After learning of the nine soul pearls, he retaliated indirectly: he drafted a report about an Overgod mission, altered it to implicate Linley more deeply, and dispersed copies under threats against his soldiers' families. Teresia acted on the rumor, but Boson uncovered the manipulation and personally disintegrated his Emissary. (Chapters 725–734)
