Duchess Mila took to her feet, walked closer to Sigrid and touched her forehead.

"Have you taken ill my dear? You have displayed some behaviors that are unlike you of recent and I am beginning to find them questionable. Aren’t you in love with Roland, why do you seem so cold and indifferent to him now?"

Once again, her mother and grandmother gasped. Duchess Mila stood up, the sudden action sent the chair toppling to the floor.

Iryne rushed to close the windows, she even opened the doors to the parlors and asked the knights and servants to step further away. After ensuring that they were safe, they sat closer to Sigrid, forming a circle. They lowered the voices and started to speak in whispers.
