"But you did it so Rose wouldn't be in the middle of a war. I can't keep disliking you when you do this much because of your love. Will there be a war?" Victor asked, ready to take his family far away.
"I would like to avoid war. The palace is my only target. Innocent people do not have to die as long as they stay out of the way. What do you know of the princes?" Zayne asked, tying a small note onto the pigeon's leg as he spoke.
