When they arrived in front of the gates, the guards there asked them to pay their entry fees which was five hundred golden coins per person.
"Uhm.. Excuse me, I think you are confused. We are not traders. And as you can see, we don't have baskets of farm products or consumables to sell here. We are only here to go round your lively kingdom and return. Young tourists like ourselves shouldn't be treated like this, you know. So, I implore that you allow us entry without collecting any money from us." Lucretia suddenly said before Helena or the others could say anything.
"I am sorry, ma'am. You have to pay before entering. And if you can't, you can turn around and walk away" One the four guards at the gate said.
