Even a normal person wouldn't hide their entire hand inside their long sleeves.

However, in every photo of Arlo that Charlie saw, the former never once revealed his left hand, which was a little strange.

Penny leaned in for a look, and she was left bemused. "Strange. The governor never did that before… It's as though his hand has been hurt and he doesn't want others to see."

Frowning, Merlin suggested, "Perhaps it was cut off entirely. Look at the way he walks—he's not going out of his way to adjust for his left shoulder and upper arm, while his right hand is out in the open. It's too strange to simply hide his left hand."

"That can't be," Penny muttered. "I met him quite recently, and there was definitely nothing strange about him before he traveled to Nigeria. Moreover, the Three Elders were there with him… There are no enemies that could have cut off his hand."

Merlin shrugged. "Just speaking from my experience, but the video shows that he has lost his left hand."
