Three days had passed since the negotiation with the Bardi emperor. The city had returned to calm and quiet after the small storm of Slimes from earlier. From what I saw, however, this seemed to only be the calm before an even bigger storm.
"Mills Milan was the most pious of Bardi princes. Ever diligent and conscientious, Mills was earnest, assiduous and bled for his country. He was deeply treasured by our Emperor Orloss XIII, but today he was assassinated by underhanded assassins. Those evil villains even disguised themselves as our Mage Country allies in an attempt to sow dissent between us. But, in front of our wise majesty Orloss, how can such puny tactics succeed? There's only one truth—the murderer was… the Holy Church!"
Although this was ridiculous, it was the "truth" we wanted to see.
