- Third Person POV -

Navier and Heinrey sat on their thrones as everyone started the meeting "This isn't just a dispute between us and White Mond. It's a fight with every Nation that has a problem with us having become an Empire!" One male yelled out "We should make an example out of White Mond and show them our might and power!" Another yelled making Navier sigh as she looked down 'How easily they speak of war. But White Mond did act rashly...By holding merchants captive simply because they felt uneasy.' Navier thought as McKenna stood up "We shouldn't rush to a decision on this matter. I propose we look further into it more before further discussions. Lets move onto the next agenda item." He said as a male raised his trembling hand "Um..." He muttered before standing up "Th-There's a rumor going around...Th-That suggests...Her Majesty divorced the Eastern Empire's Emperor due to her infertility." He said making Heinrey turn to him "What did you just say?!" Heinrey exclaimed "N-Naturally, I don't put stock in such baseless rumors! But it is an very important and concerning issue...So I thought It was appropriate to ask Her Majesty about it directly!" The male exclaimed as Navier looked at him 'Judging by his attitude, he's not asking because he actually wants to know.' Navier thought "Of course it isn't true." Navier said in a calm tone 'Someone likely put him up to it.' Navier thought thinking of who it could have been 'It probably was...' Navier's thought's trailed off as she soon got a thought of who it could have been.

Once the meeting was over, Navier walked over to Marquess Catron "Marquess Catron." She called out gaining his attention and other male, who soon left as he walked up to her "Your Majesty." Marquess Catron bowed slightly to her "Even if I was infertil, there is no chance of someone from your family being the next Empress." Navier said slightly confusing Marquess Catron "I don't quite follow." He said nervously "What i'm saying is, your efforts will get you nowhere." Navier said 'I bet he didn't expect me to be so direct.' Navier thought as Marquess Catron let out loud laught "Ha! You're accusing the wrong person-!" His words were cut off by a spear falling to the ground near him as he backed away, while Heinrey walked next to Navier "I apologize." The knight said bowing slightly picking up the spear "It's alright. Accidents happen." Heinrey said and the knight walked away 'He really should be apologizing to Marquess Catron.' Navier thought unamused with a slight hum as she saw Heinrey's smug smile on his face "Hmph. Shildish revenge, I see. I shall take my leave" Marquess Catron said as he turned and walked away, while Navier and Heinrey watched his retreating figure walk away before Heinrey turned to her with a smile "My Queen, do you like fish?" He questioned making her turn to him "Fish?" She asked "I'm trying to catch a big fish, and I think I just felt a nibble. Once I reel it in, I'll cook it up for you. I hope the Marquess suits your palate." Heinrey said not looking at Navier, who held a confused look on her face, questioning what he was talking about.
