The Queen of Azreal was furious. She paced the dining room as the news of the destruction that had been caused and the lack of signs from Scarlett, Athena, Julian, and whoever were with them was explained to her.
"We need them found. We need to find them to save our kingdom. To save it. The fires, the ruin, all the dead people - you think that's saving us?!"
Even though there was no one there to hear her anymore, she continued to rant and complain until the king announced that it was dinnertime.

She knew what she had to do. She had to find them herself.
