The nobles stared at the piece of paper with wide eyes. They have already flipped the paper thrice but they could not believe it.
"Your majesty, I apologize, but I do not understand it. Are we going to attack an empire and start a war out of the blue?" Though enticing, it was a ridiculous plan.

There was a rumor that Alex had taken a lover recently and she was the princess of the Sonarise empire. Not only that, he had left the palace with her. because the king of that empire, his uncle, Cedric Gran Sol Walsakiya was found with that woman in his chamber.
