"You scared them," Fraunces said when they heard that the Crown Prince and Duke Moller had retreated. With them gone, Leonardo had already revealed himself and started rearranging the current servants. Not long after, the Count woke up. "It was you— you scared them."

"You are not going to tell us how you did that?" Fraunces said.
"You are too noisy."
"You just scared the Duke and the Crown Prince. I want to know what you did."
