Liam and Edmund left with the Westhaven soldiers.

"If you want to rescue Aurora," Carissa said to Barrett, "take your trusted aldes up the mountain."

By saying this, Carissa was actually preserving some dignity for both Barrett and Aurora. If the shame endured by the Westhaven crown prince were to be repeated on them, the things Barrett would see upon going up the mountain would surely be appalling.

However, Barrett was concerned there might still be Westhaven troops stationed on the mountain. Thus, he requested that Carissa lend him the Mystic Army to accompany him.

Carissa regarded him for a moment. "Are you certain?"

Feeling an inexplicable tremor at her gaze, he asked, "Can you tell me if Aurora truly committed the massacres?"

"You should have asked Liam earlier," Carissa replied calmly. "Or, you can ask Aurora yourself when you meet her. Liam is unlikely to have killed her."

Barrett found it hard to believe that Aurora could have committed such acts. He recalled Liam's words, which were extremely vague. The massacre was mentioned only briefly, while the apology to Carissa was emphasized.

If Aurora had indeed committed the massacre, then the destruction of the Sinclair family would indirectly be attributed to her. She had caused the death of Carissa's family, and Barrett had sought to marry her, abandoning Carissa.
