The display trinkets went blank after the King's statement, but the images they had seen stayed in the eyes of the watching Eldinorians and humans.
After a few moments of shocked silence, Maylana hoisted Martina in the air and said these words, echoing the thoughts of many around her.
Some were still skeptical, as they didn't want to get their hopes up, but many were simple citizens like her, who trusted Katerina because of the many times they had seen her campaigning to become the Queen.

As the little elf said this with hope in her eyes, Maylana's face hardened.
Her parents…had been among those who hadn't been able to get inside before the red veil crossed them.
Still, she didn't want to break that news to the little elf just yet.
She had been crying non-stop since hearing the scary things said by those around her, and she had just calmed down.
