"When did it occur?"
The King queried as Duke Finnegan Hain followed by his side. Both had frown upon their faces to express fury. "Around the time we left to search for the Fifth Princess, Your Majesty" Finn replied. They two headed to the hall where the incident happened. Leaving the young woman in Alek's hands behind.
"It was all a set up plan then" Ezekial stated in awareness. This assassination was aimed to Lilith Scarlet only since they attacked once Ria and Zeke disappeared. "Greetings, Your Majesty!" As they reached to the gate door, the guards bowed. "Have the people inside the hall separated?" Ezekial asked.
Earning a nod back from the men as response. "We drove people out, Your Majesty. The royal physician is treating the mother of entertainer Sage at the moment. Only she was injured" They informed. "What about the culprit behind this assassination?" In serious tone, Ezekial questioned.
