Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter

The Westhaven spies in Starhaven had been active for a long time, eventually falling under the direct control of Westhaven's crown prince, Arthur Tudor. After Arthur's downfall, these spies massacred an entire household. Their actions tamished Arthur's reputation, and led to the destruction of the whole Intelligence network.

Hector was a commendable general. He and his sons all perished on the Southern Frontier battlefield. The widows left in his family, including orphans and even household servants, were mercilessly slain by Westhaven forces.

Indeed, Westhaven had committed such barbaric acts.

Because of this, they dared not publicize Aurora's massacre of the civilians and kept it hidden.

Aurora was the instigator, but she wasn't solely responsible. The Westhaven spies had committed even more heinous atrocities. The only victims were the Sinclair family. Edmund had heard Carissa was the only one left from Hector's family, which was who Aurora had mentioned.

Aurora had even replaced Carissa to become Barrett's wife. At first, these matters weren't directly related to Westhaven. But with Hector's entire family wiped out and Carissa abandoned, Westhaven was undeniably implicated in these tragedies.

Edmund's anger was rooted in this.

Westhaven was not a beastly, barbaric kingdom.
