Marie gave it some thought. 'If their king hadn't even seen his wife's face yet, then they were yet to consummate their marriage. But she still had a doubt as there were instances that showed their king was being energetic and ended up hurting the young Queen.
"Your Majesty, the first night in that Inn, outside the city, how did you hurt your leg?" Marie asked.
Seren turned awkward because she couldn't tell Marie the entire truth and said, "I...fell and hurt my ankle." How could she say that their Queen had tried to run away? Seren just prayed for Marie should not ask her how she fell or she would have to lie. 'But Martha said, lying is a bad thing.'
When Seren was busy praying silently in her mind, Marie was busy with concluding the past things from that day in the city Inn.
