The next morning came with the turmoil in Vincardine. The town was shadowed by the clouds of fear. The news of another dead body found in the woods reached the doors of 'the great manor' in no time.
Rees and other guards were already present at the site where the dead body lay still. No one could read the horrors that he personally had lived before the last ounce of life left the mortal shell.
Edwin got the news at the break of the down. He had not got any sleep. He decided to not step outside his chamber for he did not want to trouble himself when his mind was all over the place. He let Rees handle everything.
~"Master."~ He sighed unwelcomely when he heard Rees's voice trying to reach him.
~"What is it Rees? Can not you handle one thing? This news will soon reach the Council and then I will have to explain everything. My mind is not in peace and you are bothering me time and again."~
