At the Cadens… 

An elderly man and a young lady were playing chess. 

The elderly man, who looked to be in his 60s, wore a suit. 

The young lady looked like she was in her 20s. She wore a white dress and her head was adorned in a white tiara. Her smooth and fair skin contributed to the elegance of her fine facial features. It was almost as if she were an exquisitely carved statue of an immortal fairy that had been given life. 

“A lot happened last night.” The elderly man spoke in an off-hand tone as he contemplated his next move. 

“Mhm.” The young lady in white replied him quietly, “The Emperor, the head of the five commanders-in- chief was executed using the Blade of Justice and the one who carried out that judgement…’ 

The young lady glanced at the elderly man. Seeing that his expression remained unchanged, she continued, “The one that carried out his judgement was James, the grandson of Thomas Caden.” 

“The Johnstons called me a moment ago. They 

informed me that they had captured James and asked me where the Cadens stood on this issue. They also told me that they would kill James if the Cadens don’t come for him at the Johnstons’ estate by sunset.’
