Brewing Toubles

Flavia stood by the door in the morning. She tried to get in to announce to them that the food is ready, but she couldn't enter. There seemed to be some kind of spell that stopped her from getting inside.

She was not worried. The feeling she got from that spell was pretty similar to the feeling she had when she was healed after getting scalded by the boiling hot water. Alexandra's spell does have a scent – flowery- like that of a rose. And it is filled with brightness and excitement. It makes one feel secure.

And so she retreated tactfully bringing her husband too. They have living quarters in the upper level of the palace, but Maximus has shifted their quarters to the same floor as him. She nodded at Pricilla walking in the hallways seemingly surprised she was allowed to stay near the Emperor. 

"He wants to keep those who are loyal to him closer, dear," Flavia patted Pricilla's hand seeing the worry in her eyes.
