ANNE:
I saw Soto's lifeless body. He was face down, on the bed whose white sheets were soaked with dried blood, but still warm.
"She stabbed him in the neck," General Fontaine said, "she used a knife that was on the nightstand. Then she fled through the north gate."
"How was it possible that they let her escape?" I asked.
"No one knew what she had done yet," the general replied.
"And didn't they find it strange that she wanted to go out so late at night?"
"She had already gone out before late at night... and... she was now Soto's wife."
"Enough!" I roared, "Do you have any idea where she ran off to?"
"It is suspected that she reached the Wolf King's territories."
"Ha! She poor wretch, she must already be dead."
"I thought so, but... they didn't find her body."
"What do you mean?" I asked bitterly.
"They found the bodies of the pursuers, including the horse she took, but her body was not found."
