Asiva was shocked to hear the news of Regus's death.
When the black letter reached Dombivli, she almost felt like someone was playing a prank on her as there was no way that Regus would die just two days after Vega Titus did.
Unfortunately, it was no joke. Regus really was dead and she was expected to report to Zandar's mourning hall in black clothes within the next two hours.
According to the report, it was Max who brought Regus's body back which meant that he was already present on Zandar, however, what bothered Asiva was not that Max was present on Zandar, however, she knew that because he was there when Regus died, questions were bound to be raised on whether or not he genuinely tried to save the king.
Asiva knew that with Max openly challenging Regus's authority two days ago, and him being present at the scene where Regus died, everyone was going to assume the worst that he betrayed the king.
