KILL THEM WITH KINDNESS (1)

MARQUIS LAWFORD Gibson was nervous.

Right now, he was in the fancy Callisto de Luca Hall in the Royal Palace along with his fellow high nobles. Moreover, the empty table closest to the platform of the royal thrones (the majestic one for His Majesty, and the other grand seat for the Crown Prince) was reserved for the High Priest and the other members of the temple. He heard that the bishop of Steora Church would be coming over as well.

[Why am I getting an ominous feeling?]

He discreetly glanced at the table closest to the table for the High Priest. It was the table for the members of the Noble Faction: Duke Arman Winchester, Marquis Frank Balasco, Count Emerson Zachary, and Marquis Russell Spencer.
