I don't believe it was actually addressed, though, so it could be something overlooked or forgotten about. I'm actually hoping that Lucia is actually playing Aymeric like a fiddle and exploiting his kind nature whilst feeding information to Garlemald under the pretense of being a 'defector'. It'd certainly explain why Varis barely reacted at all when she 'attacked' him with a magitek reaper.

I mean, realistically whoever fed the Garleans information about Thordan must have had intimate access to information that only a very select few were aware of. My initial thought was that it could be Lahabrea and Igorythrm...but neither of them were fully aware of the extent of the Archbishop's plans, if I recall correctly - and they certainly didn't realise that he was plotting against them. I don't know, though. Maybe I'm just overthinking it?
