Zariah clenched her fists and suppressed the rage that quickly surged within her veins and she internally prayed for calm as she turned to meet Queen Sancia's disdainful glare.
"I hope you do not forget that as much as I...do not care, it was not I who caused this result, but you who served as the bait to lure your son out to the human settlement... and while you stood there and watched, unable to do anything, he was pushed off the edge."
"This 'care' of yours which you have in abundance, of what worth is it?" Zariah asked blankly.
She did not wait to hear what Queen Sancia would say in response but instead walked past her,
"What do you know?! You don't know anything!" Queen Sancia shrieked after Zariah but Zariah ignored her.
At that moment, Lord Kodin arrived from an inner hallway in the dungeons and his presence silenced any further words Queen Sancia might have had for Zariah.
