A little bell in the entryway rang not long after we started eating. I could barely sense the visitor’s mana.

“Who could be calling this early?” Caren wondered, wiping Atra’s mouth with a napkin.

“Not many people come here in the first place,” Lydia added, doing the same for Lia.

“I’ll go see,” I said.

My lodgings really didn’t get many visitors. Even Lydia shouldn’t really have been staying here. As I made my way to the front door and opened it, I resolved to stop the younger girls from following her example.

“Good morning, Mr. Allen.”

Much to my surprise, there stood Duke Howard’s elderly head butler. He had somehow contrived to stay perfectly dry in the rain despite his lack of an umbrella.

“Good morning, Mr. Walker,” I said. “Is anything the matter?”

“My master sends this. An emergency council convened in the palace yesterday evening.” The butler produced a sheet of paper from an inner pocket. For all his suave manner, I caught a nervous flicker in the depths of his eyes.

An emergency council? Well now.

“So, what happened?” Lydia asked, coming to peer over my shoulder.

“What does it say?” Caren chimed in, following suit.

The paper’s contents took our collective breath away. The solid hand of Duke Walter Howard spelled out a development that none of us had seen coming.

“The merchant house of Toretto relayed a message from Lalannoy requesting immediate talks. The republic will agree to any demands we make, on the condition that we send them an envoy and the Brain of the Lady of the Sword at once. Make preparations with all due haste.”

The Torettos, a major merchant house with its base in the east of the kingdom, had been making inroads into Lalannoyan markets.

I don’t believe it. My predictions didn’t even last a day.

Lydia and Caren murmured my name, each squeezing one of my arms.

“You were right. You can’t trust my judgment,” I said, gazing up into the dark clouds. The situation in Lalannoy seemed to be deteriorating faster than any of us had imagined.
