Akibrus was thankful that Ronan was gone on a trip, when Lyric received a summons to her parents in Orlais. He was even more thankful the Reaper was gone when he received word through the grape-vine that a contract hit was placed on his head. With Aria riding in front of him, in a special saddle-seat, he began the journey to Val Roy. He'd meet with his songbird in the dead of the night, he needed to see if she was safe, if she was okay.
And he wanted Aria to get to see her mother. She'd been asking for her, pitifully demanding 'mama' at every meal. The house was empty, with the both of them gone.
His arrival to Val Roy then led to finding the correct estate, and convincing someone that they could retrieve the Lady Lyric without alerting her family to her messenger. He was merely a messenger, delivering something to her from abroad. He'd convinced them after hiding the baby away in a nearby bush, and telling her they were playing the quiet game. She loved that game for the treats her papa slipped her when she succeeded.
