Ezekiel wasted no time after wrapping up matters in the inner court meeting. He immediately called for Lurio to create a portal directly to Zion. In an instant, he was transported to the Dragon Blood Forest, the nearest area to the castle that wouldn't attract too much attention.
He could easily confirm Cora's hunch about the Queen Regent being Tarah due to her unique scent. Even if she was in disguise or covering her face, he would recognize the woman he loved by her scent alone.
As he made his way to the castle, a familiar scent hit his nose. "Tarah," he murmured. Ezekiel felt the rapid beating of his heart. Instantly, he followed the trail of the scent and found her, hidden behind a veil, performing the familiar dragon sword dance he had once witnessed years ago, performed by the young princess of Zion. He hid himself for her sight while he watched her dance.
