" Your majesty, we better take this matter to the inner court and not in front of the slaves and guards. " Aunty's pleading voice reached our ears. She then turned around and addressed everyone," Thank you for today's event. You are all dismissed. "

" Your majesties, I know trouble when I see one " Old man Kieran insisted.
