Xavier's POV
The Duke's body has been sent to his chamber where his wife would watch him for the whole night according to tradition. His body had been ice cold as though all the fluids in his body had been frozen rapidly by some force. It was very obvious what it had been; a witch. The ardour of tides had been used by witches in such ways before. Decades ago before I had even been born.
The tribe Aquatica controlled and governed by the house of Aquatica was a tribe in the witch's kingdom. They had water based ability, the common folks could have hydrokinesis, aqua forging and the likes. But with the right training, one could be on an equal fighting field with the witches.
