Xyrill
"Who would do this to her?" Hindi ko kayang titigan ang katawan ni Egilior. Nakita raw nila ang katawan ni Egilior malayo sa Mansion ng Viceroy, which is impossible since Krea and Phelis said they only stroll around the Mansion.
We're in one of the Hospital here in the Ruzgar. Medyo naging busy ang mga doctors dahil sa bigla kong pag dating.
Nalipat ang mata ko kila Krea at Phelis na nagi-iyakan. Sinisise nila ang sarili nila dahil iniwan nila si Egilior.
"Her eyes and tongue was removed" The doctor said to me. I covered my mouth. I'm shaking in anger.
Whoever did this to her. It looks like they wanted to silence Egilior. But why? Did she know something?
"Please accept our apologies Empress Xyrill! We shouldn't have left your chambers" Lumapit sa akin sila Krea at Phelis at lumuhod sa harap ko.
Lumuhod ako kasama nila at hinawakan ang mga kamay nila. "Kung sino man gumawa nito sa kaniya. I'll promise I'll bring them to justice" Tinulungan ko silang tumayo at niyakap ko sila.
I can feel my eyes starting to water. I composed myself. Hindi dapat maging mahina ngayon.
Lumapit sa akin si Eguzki at nag bow. "As your command, we closed down the whole Mansion for investigation" Tumango ako sa kaniya.
I don't know if it's going to work since they found her body outside of the Mansion. But I'm taking my chances.
Hindi nila nakita ang phone ni Egilior, malamang kinuha iyon ng kung sino mang hayop ang gumawa nito sa kaniya. But, I also gave my attendants another phone that only receives messages from me.
"Egilior?!" A woman and man walks inside the room crying. They run to Egilior's body.
"My baby" I gave them a few minutes to mourn for their deceased daughter. Syempre para sa kanila bata pa si Egilior at marami pang pwedeng gawin sa kaniyang buhay.
Dahan-dahan akong nag lakad papalapit sa kanila. Mukhang napansin naman nila ako at lumingon sa akin.
I bowed my head to them. "I'm sorry if I failed to protect your daughter" The other Knights tried to stop me from bowing but I insist.
"My daughter always talks about how great you are Your Highness" Pina-angat ng mama ni Egilior ang ulo ko. I can see her bloodshot eyes from crying.
"She was so sure of giving her whole life serving you. I can't stop her because she work hard to be accepted in the Palace" Sila naman ngayon mag asawa ang nag bow sa akin.
"Please. Empress Xyrill, bring her justice" A tear escape my eyes but I immediately wipe it before anyone can see it.
"Empress. The Emperor is asking you back at the Mansion" Of course, that guy again. I closed my eyes to calm myself. Lumingon ako kila Krea at Phelis.
"Tara, sasama kayo sa akin" Hindi na sila pumalag at sumunod na lang sa akin.
Nag paalam ako sa magulang ni Egilior at umalis habang nakatingin sa katawan ni Egilior na iniiyakan parin ng magulang niya.
