"N-no, Lady Vulpine, I did not share any misinformation," the man in the rabbit mask stammered, slowly standing as he understood the potential consequences of the incorrect information he had relayed to the main branch about the king of the Vendreat Kingdom.
He was visibly shocked to discover that the king was aware of the highly confidential details he had himself been unaware of.
The king's age seemed to lend an extraordinary accuracy to his reaction, which rendered the masked man's previous assumptions about both the king and the kingdom utterly worthless.
The realization dawned that since he was the one who had provided the information to the main branch, the repercussions of it being proven false would likely be more than he could bear. Trembling, he rose to his feet, anticipation gnawing at his insides.
