A Deceptive Plan

Hearing people's discussion and arguments, Agost could easily guess they weren't ready to have Alora in Anka. If it wasn't possible to send her away, they wanted to kill her.

'Ridiculous,' Agost sneered at the people. Instead of showing their concern, or trying to know who was behind the attack on a princess, they were set off calling Alora evil.

If there were one or two noble families, they would try to please the royals in various ways. But having a mass of people, they were pressuring the royals.

Agost could understand the hard situation of the royals. They couldn't let go of Alora at the same time they couldn't ignore the nobles.

Hearing the crowd again chant to either kill Alora who just came alive in the morning or exile her, he glanced at Alora. He could see her struggling to sit calmly. Neither could she speak for herself nor listen to them.
