Uncertainty

"Madam, why did you not tell the Princess about Crown Prince Hyacinth?" Daniel asked.

36 hours after the portal opened on that beach, Heinrich's Ravens fell from the sky. That unknowingly gave Harriet a heart attack, and she almost collapsed.

"I heard from the Duke that Heinrich Hyacinth swallowed a philosopher's stone to become an Archmage... I think it's unnecessary to cause Her Highness to worry," Harriet said.

Her face was stern and focused. She walked out of the room and to the castle's front door. There, Russel, in his wolf form, was waiting for her.
