The problem with tracking Atharim was they were Atharim. Their entire lives were living in the shadows. From sun up to sun down they hid who they really were. And trained field hunters left little paper trails to follow.
Following a traitor who knew he was being hunted was always going to be difficult. And without the bank account to follow, or the wallets to track knowing where your agents were in the Atharim was hard pressed. Many fell through the cracks. Nox Durante wasn't going to fall through the cracks.
There were many searches Jer created over the course of his following this boy god to put to question and execute for crimes against humanity (being a traitor was the least of his crimes in Jer's eyes.) When one pinged on his system he almost dismissed it out of reflex until it came up as 'family'.
A girl, a young girl was looking for family. And while the man in the photo resembled Durante, Jer knew the name. He'd read everything he could on the boy and his family. The public might be unaware of his association with the Atharim, but Jer was not. This girl was born to a god - a failed mission. Again - falling through the cracks. But she would prove to be useful. If Durante were as lonely as he thought he was. Everything in his life had just fallen apart - family was going to be a fly to candle. Jer only had to wait. And Jer was patient.
