Da Xia stood quietly outside the study with Qingtan and Little White by her side. Her gaze was distant, her mind occupied with thoughts of what might be transpiring behind the closed doors.
It had been only two months in the outside world and so much had happened in the Demon Realm. She wasn't expecting to hear about a famine and a plague the moment she stepped inside the palace.

Little White nudged her leg, sensing her unease. Over the past couple of months, the two of them had grown more friendly than they had ever been before. She gave him a tight smile before returning to her thoughts.
