It had been the same in her past. The King issued a decree, offering a reward of five thousand thalers for accurate information. Whoever provided the clues could claim the money.
But by the eighth day, no one came forward to take the reward. Instead, they found the lifeless body Lord Theodric.

Isolde hesitated. Should I tell Princess Aveline?
If she stayed silent, events would repeat themselves: Lord Theodric would meet a violent end, and Princess Aveline would lose her mind.
But if I speak up, will the Princess even believe me? And if she does, how could I explain how I knew?

In the past, their outings were often for food. The blank vegetarian meals served in the Duke’s estate were never enough to satisfy Isolde. Now and then, she would sneak out to find something more filling.
“Yes!” Isolde didn’t bother to explain. She scooped up Leonis and headed for the door.

Isolde rarely visited places like this. She preferred to grab something simple from a street vendor and return home.

Today, the tavern buzzed with energy. The patrons were abuzz with talk of Lord Theodric’s disappearance.
At the neighboring table, a group of young nobles sat in richly tailored clothes. Two young ladies accompanied them, their manner refined and their dresses immaculate. Behind them, servants stood quietly, their expressions guarded.
