[Trinity's POV]
"What have you found?" I asked Michael when he strode towards me with a grim face.
"Something is odd about his mansion. The once lively place suddenly turned quiet. The servants and guards gossiped about a witch that was going to be burned to the stakes tomorrow."
A witch?
Now that is something you don't see every day.
"And the Earl?" I inquired.
"I don't know if we could have an audience with him. The Earl hadn't been himself since two months ago, and he refused any visits. Some say that he was busy with the wedding preparation for his only daughter to the son of Earl Perlington."
I paused to think for a moment. This was a fairly peaceful town, with most of the livelihood centered on trade. It was a small town with a friendly neighborhood and beautiful scenery with lakes and all sorts of flowers growing here and there. It was a popular destination for nobles if they wanted a vacation or just wanted to unwind.
