789. A Little Business

"Well, we can't say we didn't hide it on purpose." The high priest was all smiles since he had seen everyone's reaction. "I knew that the king and queen were announcing their daughter's birth in a few months. Who do you think sent the healers to check and use their skills to tell them what kind of baby they were having?" The high priest spoke as if it was obvious. 

"And when they said they wanted their party to be the announcement since we had finally figured it all out, I said that they needed a worthwhile performance to celebrate it. Alice has been working on that song all month." The proud fatherly look radiated off the high priest while Alice wanted to shrink away in embarrassment.
