As they infiltrated their minds, sobs were heard in the hall, coming from some noble ladies. A few men clenched their hands as a sense of justice was evoked within them, stirring madly like a storm at sea.

If they did not speak up for her, how different were they from those that sought to see her killed?
Prime minister Windrider came forward first, he put his hands together and bowed.
"Your highness, I implore you to be merciful towards the young brave lady that risked her life to save the crown prince."
