270: At her wake
It was just a short amount of time before the castle was at chaos. People pacing back and forth, rushing, trying to find solutions.
Faustina happened to overheard something.
"Owen Lopez was taken… uh, or left, without anyone's knowledge," said one of the ministers. "He is said to harbor the blood of Eulalia Fortunatorum."
"A party of mages and soldiers were dispatched to search for him. If he was indeed taken, then we still do not know the reason why they would take him so." Said the minister. "Although it is known now that the forsaken wishes to revive his lover, as what I have heard, being a blood relative isn't enough. There is still the need for the blood of Feuer to strengthen the spell, which is why they are protecting the little girl who was the daughter of the duke and a distant relative of Eulalia."
Faustina clenched her fist.
Owen Lopez. He had saved her life many times—
And he was family.
