"There have been no movements in Lucencia's army, your highness." Nakunot ko yung noo ko sa narinig ko kay Vallen.
"They've been camping around the border for a week now, and there are still no movements?" Napatango nalang si Vallen, and I looked at the war table in front of me. There are at least three thousand soldiers of Lucencia.
By the looks of their equipment when Alkaia took a look, naghahanda na talaga silang lusubin ang Treviri.
But why aren't they making a move?
Were they waiting for something..?
But what?
"Your highness!" All my thoughts came to a stop when a soldier helped himself inside our tent.
"Ano?" Tanong ko nang malaman ko na kung ano man yung dala niyang balita, at hinayaan ko na siyang magsalita.
"May sulat galing sa mansyon ng mga Randall." I was startled by the urgency in his voice, and I knew why when I took a look at the parchment of paper that was tied in a red cloth.
I immediately took the paper. At nung binuksan ko 'yon, everything was summed up in one sentence.
Ashina is in danger.
"Get my horse, Vallen." Tanong ko kaagad kay Vallen, and I crumpled that sheet of paper in my hands to control my anger.
I shouldn't have left her.
"Horse? But, your highness--"
"I'm not in the mood to talk, Vallen. That was an order."
Wala nang nagawa si Vallen kung hindi sundin yung sinabi ko, at dali dali na akong pumunta sa mansyon ng mga Randall.
I couldn't think of anything else. I just ran until I reached her room.
When I got there, hindi ko alam kung anong mararamdaman ko sa nakita ko.
"Your highness.." Peyton and Ascelin called out to me, but I paid them no heed.
Ashina was laying unconsciously in Ascelin's arms, at nakita kong nakadapa si Nilo sa sahig with Alkaia pinning him down.
When I saw that, I had an inkling to what exactly happened.
"Take Nilo to the dungeons." I ordered Alkaia, and I made my way to Ascelin and I took Ashina from his arms.
"Call for a physician, and order every servant in the mansion to stay in their rooms."
"Yes, your highness."
