King Oberon was lost in thought after his conversation with Edwin in the afternoon. He was weighing all the possibilities and their consequences. After much contemplation, He reached a decision.
That night at the dinner table, he announced that the royal palace would hold a feast of shadows and splendour- a traditional royal gathering where all the respected families of Bloodhorn were invited by the royal family of Belmont.
Looking at Alexander's face, Edwin figured the announcement was a sudden decision by King Oberon, and nobody really expected it. He was confused too, but couldn't question the demon king. After all, it was his kingdom, and he had every right to decide what he wanted to do.
But Ruth seemed quite nervous about that announcement. That announcement meant they had to stay there for two more days. The time was slipping from their hands, and she needed to talk to Edwin as soon as possible.
