Summary
“So, you say that Prince Alfonse, Princess Sharena, and Commander Anna have all been poisoned? And Queen Henriette was poisoned in an earlier assassination attempt that injured Princess Veronica in the process?”
Hríd paused for breath, rewarded with a tiny almost imperceptible nod from his sister before she dissolved once more into tears. He was gratified to see Soren, who stood nearby, roll his eyes at the display before he went back to the book he was reading. Whether he had been tasked with looking for a solution to the problem Hríd had just outlined or was just catching up on his reading Soren seemed entirely unbothered by the situation that had thrown the Order into disarray.
“So, the only way to obtain the antidote to all these poisons is for Kiran to work out how to raise the dead?”
Fjorm nodded again, a picture of abject misery, before she finally seemed to remember what words were.
“Yes.”
He considered his next words carefully, before realising that however he framed the question on his mind his response would seem rude.
“You believe that horseshit?”
