The next week, I asked my father to have a stroll in the woods with my five knight guards, which is still a part of our duchy. Our mansion gates were surrounded by a forest. The trees were towering and dense, creating a sense of calm and tranquility as we wandered down the windy roads.
I was happy when my dad permitted me to have a stroll with my five knights. I remembered just recently that in the former Avyana's memories, they were the witnesses against Avyana in the trial. And they were the ones who killed those people whom Avyana ordered to kill. They were stained with the innocents' blood, and that's what made them regret and kill themselves during their imprisonment. But was it really regret? Or did they just commit suicide because they betrayed their masters?
