The councilmen and the woman were stunned in silence for a moment when they heard Urhan's proposal.
Laurel was indeed the best candidate to become the queen of Ixoviya. And if she became the queen, the seven of them present in Urhan's house would become the strongest families in the sorcerer kingdom. That meant that they would have easy trade not only with the Loreans but also in the human realm. Caleb was a very successful businessman in the human realm and they had heard that the brothers controlled a sizable economy of their country. With Laurel on Caleb's side, they would all be invincible. It was an opportunity of a lifetime.
Laurel was Urhan's sister, and Urhan was appointed as the High Priest by Daryn Silver. He was in very good books of the rulers and therefore there was no way they would cross him. The woman said, "We would like to talk to Laurel about it."
