After finishing his words. Doug turned to Isolde and said, “Come with me. I have something to show you”

Isolde eyed him, a flicker of hope in her voice, “Is it from him?”

“Yes,” Doug replied simply

She followed him into another room. Doug opened a box and pulled out a small clay figurine–its features were rough, but it unmistakably resembled Isolde. The figurine’s hand had broken off, leaving it incomplete.

“This was left at the inn. He came here in secret and didn’t stay at the posthouse. By the time I arrived, his belongings had already been searched. This was left on the floor, and whoever searched it broke it,” Doug explained.

Isolde’s fingers trembled as she gently touched the figure’s face, then the jagged edge where its hand was missing. A sharp pain pierced her heart, like something was gnawing at her from within..

“Is there anything else?” she asked quietly, her voice barely audible. He had mentioned there was a surprise for her something more.

Doug looked at her, his expression unreadable. There’s one more thing. He had a famous embroiderer from Zloimond make a wedding dress for you. It’s most likely in Kamari’s hands now. He hasn’t returned it I heard this from an old acquaintance in Kamari’s household.”

A cold void spread inside Isolde. Her stomach churned with anger. How dare Kamari take the wedding dress he had made for her?

“What was his mission here?” Isolde fought to keep her voice steady as she asked. She had to know.

Kamari has grown bolder, thinking the King is too weak to take action. Sixteen years ago, Princess Aveline used gunpowder to blow up a dam to redirect floodwaters. Kamari got the idea to make a powerful weapon from that. The King got wind of it and sent Oliver to investigate. If it turned out to be true, Oliver was ordered to destroy it. Oliver arrived in Zloimond, spent some time investigating, and found everything that had been reported. But he was betrayed. Kamari surrounded him. Oliver was sharp and managed to escape with some of his men. He seized the chance to sneak up to Beaupids Mount and destroy the weapons cache. Unfortunately, he had no experience with gunpowder and didn’t know how much to use. The weapons depot was destroyed, but it
