Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

In the study, Jacob, Rafael, and Kyle had been discussing for over two hours.

If Harvey wasn't in the capital, there were three possible places he could have gone.

The first was Victory Pass. Yuvan, Harvey, and their people likely had planted some informants there. The second was Stonebridge County, where their private army was stationed. The third option was a military garrison outside the capital. Harvey had probably been covertly establishing connections there over the years.

No matter where he went, it indicated that they were taking action.

However, Rafael and the others had always believed that Harvey was the most patient among them. Why was he the one making a move first now?

'Perhaps he's going all in," Jacob said. "After all, Eleanor is still alive. They might prefer to take a gamble rather than live in fear."

Rafael shook his head. "I don't think it's a gamble. They've been plotting for too long. The best opportunity to strike was during the battle at the Southern Frontier, and they didn't do anything then. Without a justified reason, they're even less likely to act directly now. My greater concern is whether anything will go wrong on General Sullivan's side at Victory Pass."

"Westhaven!" Jacob's expression darkened.

The biggest variable at Victory Pass was Westhaven. It was likely that Harvey already learned that Westhaven's king was critically ill. If he had indeed headed for Westhaven, he probably already had planted someone there for a while. In fact, he might very well be close to the new crown prince.
