Ashley, looking a bit irked, snapped, “Find a way. If you can’t raise the silver; there are other ways to gather information. If you can’t handle such a simple task, how can I trust you with more important matters in the future?”

Vivian silently cursed under her breath. She had thought following Ashley would lead to a bright future, but this situation was far from what she’d imagined.

She had no choice but to pull every string she could, using her long–standing connections in the palace. Eventually, she managed to gather some information.

In the Eryndral Empire, the system of marquises, dukes, counts, and viscounts was not strictly hierarchical–except in name, since their fiefs were equal in size. But with a county attached to the title, what was the King trying to do? Was he planning to promote her or Oliver to a higher rank?
