Lulu nodded in understanding and hurried off to fetch hot water, to be used to freshen up Rafael's hands and face.

Carissa had just settled her husband onto the divan when Lulu returned and said, "Sage Adrian and Mr. Spencer, along with the other guild members, forced His Highness to drink. Deputy Ziegler said His Highness couldn't refuse, so they poured a lot for him. They drank rose wine with people from other guilds."

Carissa frowned. "My master had someone force His Highness to drink?"

Wasn't that just bullying? With so many guild members around, each one having a cup, they could have made Rafael drink until he vomited blood.

"Yes, he drank a lot. But isn't the rose wine from the Lunar Guild supposed to be mild? Why was it so strong?" asked Lulu.

"It's likely that my master brewed the wine, so it's not the kind the Lunar Guild usually provides," Carissa replied.

She glanced at Rafael, whose cheeks and ears were flushed red from the alcohol. It seemed unlikely they would be able to drink the ceremonial wine tonight, and she would probably be the only one eating all the food on the table.

She had a lot of questions for him, especially about what Lily had mentioned to her earlier that evening. She had hoped to ask him for more details. But now, not only could she not ask, he was completely unconscious.

Pearl brought over the hot water.
