After a brief, confusing conversation with Tess, Oliver finds himself heading to Smallville and the Luthor mansion before he really processes what he's doing. He sends Chloe a short text to let her know he'll be out of the city for a few hours, then focuses the rest of his attention on driving.
Well. As much of his attention as the questions spiralling through his mind will allow him to focus, anyway.
What the hell is Veritas? he wonders, his eyebrows furrowing and his grip tightening slightly on his steering wheel. And what had Mercy meant by he was exactly where his father had been so many years ago?
The drive takes far longer than he wants it to, due to backed-up traffic from a wreck, but once he makes it out of the city, his foot presses a little more on the gas pedal.
She'd told him it was nothing to worry about, but he couldn't help it. Chewing on his lower lip, Oliver finds himself parking the car at the mansion and striding past the guards with a polite nod and smile as they let him pass without question. He makes his way inside and down the dark corridor toward the study, knocking lightly on the doorframe.
"Mercy?"
