Derek entered the king’s study, and reported, “Your Majesty, Grand Princess Eleanor has come to the palace and requests to see you.”

Salvador looked up from the mountain of reports before him. He tossed aside his pen, and rubbed his temples. “Did she say what it was about?”

“She didn’t specify, but she appears to be quite angry,” Derek replied cautiously.
