Sabina, Silvia, Ceti, and Merina approached Rowena's study with a mix of determination and concern, their footsteps echoing down the hall.
As they neared the door, they were immediately stopped by four Bloodborn Guards blocking the entrance, their eyes cold and unmoving. Sabina, growing impatient, placed her hands on her hips and shot them a glare.
"We are here to talk about some important matters with Her Majesty. Give way already," she said with a disgruntled expression, her voice laced with authority.
The guards remained unfazed, not budging an inch. Sabina's glare sharpened, but before she could press the matter, a regal voice echoed from within the study.
"Let them in."
Sabina narrowed her eyes in pique, but the guards stepped aside to allow them entrance. Merina, always a bit more reserved, tugged at Ceti's hand, her voice hesitant, "I think I should stay outside lest I disturb Her Majesty."
