Keep in mind that enither Praeludium nor Praefatio are released. Based on the summaries, Germaine saw Riliane again and two and two connected for her. Kyle knows Riliane is alive and he works with Germaine again. It is always possible she dropped the topic in a conversation, either in a small portion of the novels or "off-screen".
