"Good morning Alfred. What are you watching outside?" Alessandra asked as she walked down the stairs and found Alfred looking out the window by the door.
"Good morning, Duchess. There are people by the gates. I heard from one of the guards that news about the Marquess has spread like fire through the town. The paper men have come to get information from Edgar to write in tomorrow's paper and some of the townspeople are outside. It'll be a busy day for the guards at the gate," said Alfred.
"So early," Alessandra said, going to Alfred's side to get a look at how many people were by the gates. "Edgar has no plans of going outside to speak with anyone. They would have better chances of going to the court. If they are going to stand outside our gates, I hope they don't try to rush in when we have guests. They will end up hurting themselves."
