Ruth was tensed since the previous evening. Harold sent her a message secretly. He told her the day Augustus had decided on the attack on Cantanova, and it was today.
Ruth still hadn't figured out how she was going to warn Edwin about it. She got ready in the morning and went to meet him. She decided to just tell him and answer his every question, even if it meant exposing Harold's name.
She couldn't be selfish and hide it when it was a question of life and death.
She was confused when she didn't find him in his chamber, nor was he in his office. Ruth went to meet Elsie in her chamber to find her styling her hair.
Elsie smiled, looking at Ruth. "Good morning, Ruth!"
Ruth returned her smile with hers. "Good morning, Lady Elsie! Erm... do you know where your cousin is? He is not in his chamber and office."
"You don't know?" Elsie frowned.
"Umm... no?!"
