That very day, Zinnia and Veronica were having a spar. They moved back and forth as their swords classed.
When they were done, Zinnia gave her some instructions to change some moves and then drank a mouthful of water.
Afterward, she wiped her mouth and asked, "Did you hear what happened in the trial?"
"I did," Veronica replied. "The Queen is really cunning. She made our hard work go for nothing."
Zinnia remarked, "It's not that we weren't expecting her not to befriend the witches."
"True but for her to kill all the nobles who tried to mention her…. even for her it's a vicious move. How can such a person be the mother of a nation?"
Veronica questioned Queen Isabella's principal.
Zinnia shrugged. "You know, people who are real villains, they don't give a damn what's right from wrong. They have their own goals and desires. They are busy fulfilling them. They will brush off your reasons."
