The Emperor was a greedy man.
It could be said that all the Emperors were greedy. They wanted to have all the power there was as they are the only ones who would use the four elements. They were superior to the rest.
"Does the diary say that they can use the sub-elements if they want to?" Duke Salvador asked as he looked at Cassandra who was in deep thoughts.
The fifth Princess's eyes were down at her hands where she held the papers. Her long eyelashes fluttered as her fingers on the paper tightened.
"I don't know .." Cassandra managed to say. Although it was true that she could read the contents it was also true that Cassandra did not understand some of it.
Cassandra had already told it to the Duke but she was afraid to say that to him. He had asked her for help and for the first time Cassandra was feeling helpless that she could not reply to all the things that the duke was asking her about.
