After the long breakfast we all went upstairs again for us to change to hold the ceremony in honor of those killed in the week's attack on the palace which was to be held at the Glory's City Convention Center as the Execution House which was also used for these events was completely burned to the ground.

I asked Anne and Scott for a report earlier today on what happened and my lady-in-waiting was efficient in bringing one to me quickly and unnoticed. When I read it, I found out that it had been an attack by The Knights and other guards had died in the conflict and Roman had pulled many of them out despite not remembering.

Scott said that Kesley was present and he never saw a man as iron-willed as my bodyguard to get everyone out of there, but he couldn't save everyone.
