of her face.
"Where is she?" I demanded, my voice tight with concern. Elara's demeanor told me I needed to know: something had gone terribly amiss, and Sage was at the center of it all.

One of the guards, a burly man with a stern expression, stepped forward. I'm afraid 1 can't do that. It was Her Majesty's order to not allow anyone to see her," he responded. his voice unwavering

"Insolent!" Scott shouted, his face contorted with anger. Without warning, he delivered a swift and powerful blow to the guard's jaw, sending him *ri*ough the corridor.
The guards exchanged bewildered glances, clearty caught off guard by the sudden violence and the authoritative demeanor of the new mers.
