As Envoy Calis stepped outside, he cast a quick glance back at the house before meeting Aedric's eye. They stood in silence for a moment, each reflecting on the exchange that had just taken place.

Calis's jaw tightened slightly as he thought it over. He had come here expecting a simple task, assuming that if anyone made the situation challenging, it would be the Prince-not Lady Fiona After all, she was from the outside world and, by all accounts, more concerned with healing than politics. But he'd been wrong: Lady Fiona wasn't just another noble out of her depth. She had made it very clear that she was no easy target,
