"What do you mean the prince died?"
"And why did you help someone kill the prince?"
After hearing the news, Aizel and Isabella barraged Vespara with questions, their voices blending together as they asked for clarification.
"Calm down; I will tell you everything.
"First, it was David who killed the prince. I just helped him to stall the time that he needed." Vespara replied.
"But why, Goddess, you swear to protect the royal family and the kingdom," Isabella said.
"Do you think I care anything about the kingdom or the royal family? Did you forget who I am?"
Isabella's voice trailed off suddenly as the truth hit her. She recognized that the wounds of the past couldn't be mended so easily, and it was clear that Vespara hadn't forgotten the pain and grievances that had plagued them.
"What happened in the past? Why do you have a beef with them?" Aizel asked.
