Nikolai let out a sigh as he gazed blankly at Rosela's kneeling form right in front of him. He was currently debating what to do with the woman he once considered a friend… Someone that he once considered family… as a sister, even…

By the sidelines, he noticed that Mineah had already taken her spot up to where he would usually sit whenever he presided over a trial. He had heard the guards announce her arrival, but he didn't want to stray his gaze away from Rosela for even a second. She might still have something up her sleeve despite being shackled down on the ground, and he refused to have someone else die yet again due to her machinations.
