Sent a head of a banshee to the Empress? Sure enough, the Duke was a fearsome man. Not many have the guts to send a banshee's head to the Empress especially on her birthday.
" Anyway, I didn't call you for reminiscing about my old days." Certainly not, if the Duke told her more about his thrilling days, she might really end up with a heart attack—— the guy knew no fear and his antics were simply out of the box in which she lived, Ginny didn't have the guts to steal the books from the restricted section and was still in the process of building up her courage, yet this guy was fearsomely handing out bloody gifts with a smile on his face. An innocent one at that!
