She suddenly scoffed and said, "Has the King of Vacrerian lost his sanity or he just doesn't know what is best for him? A servant?" she scoffed and again and sat down. "Well, good riddance.

Her expression was very different from the one she was used to. It made her question what could have possibly happened before her return. Still, she hoped she would help her out this once.
