''Where is this witch you are referring to? '' a witch asked from the crowd. 

''Over there!'' The clown pointed over to where Marline stood. 

'How did he spot her that fast?'

'How would the crowd react?'

MEANWHILE 

Emilia wore a confused look on her face, she looked at her father, then to the governing council and guards who threw several glances at her. 

''Papa what is happening?'' Emilia asked, looking confused. 

The King couldn't utter a single word to his dear princess, he was utterly speechless. 

''Guards!!! '' The outspoken short man amongst the governing council instructed the guards, giving a Go-ahead signal to them. 

The guards went in princess Emilia's direction and dragged her to the bench in front of them. 

They tied her hands and legs, after which they laid her and chained her to the bench to get whipped.
