Hiding in the Imperial Palace, Michelle was surprised when Cold Flame contacted her, saying that the delegation split into thirteen parts, and that only one was heading into the palace. The others spread out around the palace. Part of the delegation which was going into the palace was the old man and Garric. So Michelle quickly went to Mare and Snow and made a quick adjustment to her plans.
Snow and Mare would leave the palace and each track a group left behind while Michelle remained by the little Emperor's side using the identity of Michael Grayson. Mare and Snow left, and after quickly changing her clothes and putting on her disguise mask, Michelle went to prepare the little Emperor for the visit. David Elether also seemed to be aware of the visit as he didn't ask anything and just went into the throne room. He wasn't worried that the delegation from the lower realm would recognize him.
