Traitor or Intruder

While Crown Prince Hemeri impatiently waited at the farm, Andry returned with a man who must be in his 50s.

"I was told that he is one of the best coroners in the capital," Andry informed the Crown Prince, being careful to not address him in his royal title though the coroner was standing at a distance from them.

"Do you tell him that everything must be kept a secret?"

"Yes. You can rest assured."

"Then how long will he take?"

"He said it depends on the case," Andry responded and continued. "Some need just a few hours while some need days."

Despite the urgency he felt, Hemeri nodded his head as there was no better choice. Then Andry walked back to the coroner and took him to the warehouse.
