--The Nydisian Kingdom, The Castle, The Royal Court--
Lucian and Katherine's carriage had come to a stop in front of the royal court while the other carriages followed closely behind.
Upon his arrival at the court, the footmen stood upright and at attention. The noise coming from outside alerted those in the left-wing of the castle who had arrived.
The tension that had built up between the members of the council and Killian was very much evident but both parties kept their words civil. The loud neighs of the horses that could be heard cut through the hostility in the room.
The members of the council as well as Killian headed for the entrance of the court and were met halfway with Elliot, who had been waiting patiently on standby.
Lady Victoria, Lady Evaline and the Baret sisters were peacefully having tea in the lounge room when they heard the commotion that had been caused by the servants.
