Karl's question on Emmah's whereabouts had reminded Sigrid if the fact that she had ordered for the woman to be imprisoned on the mage estate.
To her surprise, or not, when she arrived, Emmah had been freed due to a mix-up. Apparently on days of royal weddings and other special days like when Eldoria won wars, prisoners that had committed minor offenses were released.
The prison in the mage estate was not outside of those rules so on the night when everyone else was celebrating Thalassa's wedding, Emmah was accidentally released from prison along with four other servants that had been caught stealing from the magic farms.
Only four prisoners were supposed to be released but the guard on duty, a man that was allergic to alcohol somehow managed to fall into temptation, ignore his allergies and took a few sips of alcohol. He was drunk and ill, out of his mind, he let all the prisoners go.
