"He is taken to the royal prison already and is being interrogated there. So any loyalty for him would only take you to the prison with him." she stared at every face intently for a sign, any sign that could convince her that asking that man would be beneficial for her.
She had given it all. She knew she would not maintain this lie for a long time. So she had to act fast. The fear was crawling on their chest and shadowing their faces. So far they all have believed that this group of knights will find nothing. Their time limit would end and they would return with disappointment. They were more assured when their leader did not pay any attention to his task but to their mistress.
