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.

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.
