Alyce could be.
She had the motive.
And same as Circe, who was from another powerful kingdom, could have enough connections.
The thought didn't sit well with him, but it stayed anyway, lingering in the back of his mind no matter how much he tried to push it aside.
The fact that she was there the moment Ezra was finished with meeting with the king as well was strange even though she said her reasons.
It felt a little too convenient.
She timed her present a little too well.
Also her reasons were good enough motive.
Alyce felt Helios didn't love her.
That alone could push someone to do things they normally wouldn't.
To act.
To interfere.
To take control in ways that didn't look like control at all.
But…
On the other hand, the Dark Ones started appearing years before Helios and Alyce got engaged.
So, that wouldn't make sense.
The timeline didn't align.
No matter how he tried to twist it.
But still, Alyce was still a bit suspicious.
