Katherine remained silent not knowing what to say in regards to what Lucian had revealed about his mother. It was more or less a realization of why the kingdom is as it is and why Daniel wanted Lucian branded with the royal crest to ensure his loyalty.

As a child, the only thing that would bring Katherine comfort was storytelling and as she grew up she became more intrigued by novels and the writings of experts. To Katherine, stories were a kind of safe place where her imagination could run as wild and as free as it pleases.
