Bad Choices

Princess Deulara never thought that she would come back to this conference room in disgrace after leaving so confidently the last time she was here.

She wanted to show Lady Mikaela how wrong she was about her and her family.

However, here she is. Right back where Lady Mikaela said she'll be. Only now, she does even have a country to hand over to her.

"Hello~ Is anyone going to answer my question?" Mika asked, growing annoyed with all the silence in the room.

Head down in shame, Deulara didn't want to see the look on Lady Mikaela's face.

"Our people have turned against us and each other." King Magzor finally spoke up.

"Turned against you? How? Is it a rebellion?" Ailwin asked.

"No...no...I wish it was just one of our retainers plotting to take over the throne. No, our people… it was Nobet Kingdom's citizens attacked the palace." Magzor looked up before dropping his eyes back down.
