The news of Eirwen Night returning to the kingdom alive had spread like a wildfire in the whole territories under the control of the Royal Hart family. The noble group acted weirdly among the rest of the other factions.
At the King's office, those who were waiting inside felt restless in their hearts. Not just because Eirwen Night who is supposed to be dead then comes back alive, they worry more about whose side he would lean to.
Eirwen Night didn't come directly to the castle as he joined Araysh in the progression of the duke's funeral. Moreover, since Damian Araysh was being summoned to the palace as well, the two decided to come over together.
The place is full of tension and stillness. It only broke the quietness when someone knocked on the door.
Knock. knock. Knock.
"You may enter!" said the crown prince, Viktor Hart, from the inside of the room.
