Volume 2 - Chapter 44: Execution

Princess Nodwealsia bore the weight of being the heir to the throne while witnessing the constant conflicts among the nobles in the palace. The disputes among them filled her mind even during moments when she thought about her responsibility to rule the kingdom. The conflicting interests of the nobles threatened the peace of the palace. Moreover, the words spoken to her today and the speech delivered by her mother were weighing heavily on her heart, causing her to feel the pain and sorrow of vulnerability.

As Princess Nodwealsia embraced her mother and wept today, her thoughts drifted away. The nobles' disputes had dragged her into a deep inner conflict. The confusion about her own leadership and what role she should play in the kingdom had made her forget about what was happening around her. Furthermore, the traitors in the kingdom were confusing her, but at least the treachery had finally been exposed.
