Prince Angelo froze in his place for a few seconds.
"Has what I done amused you, my dear?" Prince Angelo tried to gain the upper hand in the situation, and Elliana chuckled again, this time a little louder than before.

Nathaniel followed her closely, maintaining enough distance from her to not trigger her.

Prince Angelo nodded at the witch. He wanted to say he believed her, but for some reason, the way Elliana talked didn't settle well with her.
