Chapter 243: Another fate for the spider.

In the morning, Sigrid feigned surprise when she heard the news of Romilda’s state of mind. She followed Roland to the royal hospital where they found her, in a state of of disorientation. She did not recognize Roland or Sigrid and appeared to be scared of everyone. Her eyes were hazy and she was mumbling jumbled words to herself.

Sigrid went from feigning surprise to being truly surprised because she had left Romilda in a catatonic state. Someone else had used magic to undo the work which she had done and then do some damage of their own.

Slowly, her eyes roamed over everyone in the hospital room suspiciously. Who...who had done it? she wondered. Was it Roland, the Lord mage or another mage in Eldoria whose identity she was unfamiliar with? She had given the system clear instructions, if there was an awakened or hidden Eldorian mage, she wanted their identity. All of them were under her thumb so who was the new player on the board?

"Cosmos." she called out in her mind.

"Someone from Medoris undid your work, they wanted to question her about the whereabouts of the shards. This was the best they could do. Her mind is forever fried, don’t worry." He assured her.

Sigrid’s heart became settled. "What happened to aunt Romilda?" she put a hand on her chest and asked in a small startled voice.

One of the knights provided the answer, "The royal castle was under attack last night. Word had spread far and wide about the Eclipsion sword so mages and knights from everywhere are coming out of their holes to find the sword."

Sir Augustus, one of the Roland’s quietest and most loyal knights filled in the rest. "We found her in the hallway near the king’s study, a mage was doing something to her mind. He escaped but....." He shook his head.
