Devios fell to his knees in front of a pile of bloody corpses stacked in the courtyard at the back of the castle.
"When did this happen...? I didn't hear anything... There should be a commotion, there should be screams...! How could everyone get murdered like this...?!"
He uttered in disbelief, staring wide-eyed at the hellish picture of his world crumbling into pieces.
Servants, soldiers, his family members, and friends.
All dead, with unseeing glossy eyes staring into the distance.
Miriette was crossing her arms and looking to the side ā she was still wearing her helmet, but she didn't have to remove it for others to understand that she was feeling nauseous.
As for the other two, Zoemi and Burushi walked past Devios ā Zoemi patted the younger boy's shoulder ā and began inspecting the pile.
"Some of them were tied up."
