Marcellus knew something was wrong when this whole trip started. An urgent message from the council… Out of the blue? He had his doubts, but he received the news from Edmund so he didn't say anything.
But now, there was clearly something wrong. A few minutes back, they took a wrong turn at Larkingale Town and he was sure they weren't headed for the council.
"Edmund, where are we?" he asked level headedly.
"I told you my Lord, we're going to the council house to meet some of the senates to discuss some growing matters they asked you to address," Edmund replied smoothly, never glancing up from his notes.
"You say that, but we've been heading towards nowhere for the past half hour," this earned Edmund a questioning look from Marcellus.
"I'm sure the coach knows where he's going. He's been driving us for years" Edmund replied, trying his best to not sound annoyed and kept his eyes on his parchments.
