The Queen's Silence
Then, almost as an afterthought, another piece of information surfaced.
The Sword Princess had returned.
Aura.
She had been away from the kingdom when everything had fallen into chaos. Far from the capital, she had known nothing about the events unfolding in her absence.
Only after returning did she learn what had happened.
Even Aura had been caught off guard.
Who could have imagined that the three people she had encountered during her journey would end up at the center of such a massive disturbance?
And one of them...
Was the uncle she had believed to be lost.
Aura stood quietly within the royal court.
Her long silver hair rested over her shoulders, barely moving as she listened. Her crimson eyes remained fixed on the messenger standing before the throne.
She didn't interrupt.
She simply listened.
The Prince was alive.
Victor was involved.
Fantom City had changed.
And now the entire kingdom stood on the edge of a crisis.
