At Whatever Cost (Ch.68)

~There is none made so great, but he may both need the help and service, and stand in fear of the power and unkindness, even of the meanest of mortals~

-Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Crown prince Jaran stared in surprise at the black clothed figure that had appeared out of nowhere, taking a protective stance before him. The crown prince was slightly concerned as this figure struck him with an intense feeling of familiarity yet he could not place who it was, the crown prince did not have much time to dwell on this as the assasins rushed towards them in fury.
