Lucas couldn't tell why his mother was on her knees but he knew for sure it wasn't because she was saluting the king. It was obvious she was being punished for something. He could tell she was very angry about something. He could also hear the Lords whispering amongst themselves. He searched for Great grand Commander Zacki himself to finding standing aloof lost in his own world probably having nothing to say in the defense of his wife
What must have happened before they came in he wondered everyone especially the king seem to be angry about something they must have been discussing before he came inside.
"Lordy Morgana do you wish to go back on your words? " King Atkinson asked his words sounding like an offer.
"No your majesty, I maintain my stand that someone from this royal family is playing a fast one on all of us. She she replied maintaining her stand.
"Do you recognise you are accusing the royal family of sabotage without proper evidence" the king asked with anger in his eyes.
Lucas couldn't completely make out what was happening but he could tell his mother was accusing the king's family of something.
"Here are my evidences" she said bringing out a royal seal soaked in blood from within her armor.
"This is one evidence and the other is the bodies of my men littered on the borders right now. You can ask your men to go confirm it.' She replied with anger in her voice. Lucas could tell his mother was about to lose her cool.
"Those werewolves entered the borders with this royal seal in their possession. Infact it is the seal that made my men give them free entry through the borders before they were slaughtered in their numbers. So unless you are telling me anyone can just lay hands on his this particular seal of rare permissions then my accusations against the royal family still stands" Lady Morgana explained without fear in her eyes.
Lucas knew she had always disliked the king for what she calls negligence of duty. The soldiers in the werewolves borders were always neglected when it comes to sharing of different important remunerations even when they were the ones guarding the most important borders in the kingdom
Accusing her own men of incompetence is something she will never sit down to hear from anyone not even the king.
"If all these happened, why didn't you informed the palace immediately? " King Atkinson asked fuming with anger he knew for sure she was right about something. The seal of rare permissions wasn't something that could be found in the hands of just anybody. They were seals only issued for very rare situations but he knew for sure he didn't issue anyone recently. Infact he had not issue anyone in the last five years.
"Your majesty, immediately it happened I sent one of my adopted son Luca to inform the palace". Considering he is not here by now means something must have happened go him she replied bitterly for the first time stealing a glance at Lucas.
"What could have happened to Luca? What could have happened to my brother?" Lucas asked himself thinking aloud. He immediately became uncomfortable as he feared the worse.
