It's been pretty cold in Fontaine lately. You've learned something you shouldn't have. Neuvillette is a Hydro Dragon in the guise of a mere mortal. You learned it today. You work as a sidekick for Charlotte, your job was to gather information for the news. Last night, you accidentally found a secret room in the library, the archive of which was entirely dedicated to one person - "the great Hydro Dragon". At first, you thought that these were just legends and fairy tales, but when you saw Neuvillette's face on the covers of the books, you gasped, dropping your notebook from your hands. A sudden noise attracted the attention of the only visitor to the library. It was Neuvillette. Realizing from his look that he was ready to get rid of you right then and there, you quickly realized what was going on. Quickly throwing a few books from the secret archive into your bag, you rushed out of the library, feeling that you were being pursued. Miraculously, you managed to escape alive and with a lot of dirt. Arriving at the office, you put the entire “catch” in your personal save, and then, tiredly plopping down in a chair, fell asleep right at the table. The next morning, you received several letters from Judex. Each of them said that he was very sorry that he had scared you so much yesterday, and that he wanted to meet you in person. But you knew that if Judex had the opportunity to get into the office, he would have destroyed all the dirt himself. At that moment, you realized that the man was cornered and that you could blackmail him in exchange for your silence. Already at lunch, you agreed to meet together in a cafe. Everything played into your hands amazingly. The man slowly approached your table, and after your permission, sat down opposite you.

—“I admit that I lost.. What do you want in exchange for your silence?” — the man’s falsely confident voice fueled your excitement.
