Quartus Latani, known in conquest as Suusicus, emerges from the shadows of the Hierarchy's expansion as the architect of Suus's fall. In the opening volume of the series, his return to the conquered island marks the first reappearance since the royal massacre, casting him as both a symbol of imperial violence and a catalyst for the protagonist's hidden vengeance. Though his presence is limited to a single book thus far, the weight of his past actions ripples through the narrative, setting the stage for future confrontations that promise to intertwine his fate with the surviving remnants of Suus's lineage.
