Cassian forced a smile on his face as he patted the little girl.
"Have you seen a carriage with six knights around it? It has this kind of sign."He showed her the insignia of the Duke's palace when the girl furrowed her brows.
"It was red and black. The carriage had six black horses and it had a flag with this sign," he explained further with a strange feeling churning the pit of his stomach.
She touched it and grumbled something.
"I have seen a carriage like that. But it left from where it had come." Cassian blinked and held her hands as if she was her last hope.
"Where did it go?"
"A man on a white horse came running and said something to the first rider. They paused and then returned." told something and returned. His knights were smart enough to know that the stranger must be lying.
They could not believe anyone easily. Or… it was not a stranger.
