Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 36

But this matter was impossible to investigate now. The spies were either dead or had disappeared back to Westhaven, where they couldn't be found

Carissa couldn't help but feel bitterness and pain as she thought of her father and brothers again.

They had once reclaimed the Southern Frontier, only to lose it again and die tragically on the battlefield. If the Hell Monarch could win the ongoing war and reclaim the Southern Frontier, it would fulfill the wishes of her father and brothers.

On her first night back home, Carissa didn't sleep well Her dreams were filled with scenes of her mother, sister-in-law, nephews, and nieces being killed. After jolting awake in the middle of the night, she couldn't fall back asleep. She spent the rest of the night lying in bed staring wide-eyed at the canopy, her mind racing,

From the wounds on her family members' bodies, Carissa could see how ruthless the assailants had been. It was clear that they had been venting their anger

Losing a battle shouldn't have caused Westhaven to resort to such methods, especially since it wasn't their first defeat. Previously, Carissa's father and brothers had won a battle against the enemy kingdom, killing thirty thousand soldiers in the process. Yet, Westhaven's spies hadn't taken any action then

her tears in secret.

The next day, Solomon took some of the younger members of the Sinclair family along with him to help retrieve the remaining items from Carrisa's dowry from the Warren family. They took everything on the gift list-from sandalwood tables and chairs, to furniture and embroidered partition screens.

Every single thing. They didn't want to leave anything for the Warren family
