Princess Freya who was dressed in disguise to avoid drawing attention to herself was left confused on what to do. Nightfall was upon her and she couldn't place the whereabout of Madam Marie. She had even waited for some time to just see if she stepped out to get something but the children kept telling her Madam Maria said she was travelling and not coming back soon.
It was becoming obvious that Lord Barak might be right about her having a hidden agenda hence she didn't wait for her so they could go together.
Freya at this stage was more determined to get to Joan and Lucas before anyone else as she didn't know the true intentions of Madam Marie from this stage. She also regretted not coming with some guards as now she have to go on this journey alone.
She quickly drafted a letter to her brother informing him of the present situation and her resolve to continue in the journey no matter what.
