160 Firm decisions and few regrets

Taking control of Kyre wasn't easy. First of all, I had to uncover all the moles that sent reports to the capital. Money swindles were a frequent problem as well.

It was particularly hard to keep in mind all the details that led me towards the culprits. I needed to write down what I noted before forgetting.

I used a code that popped into my mind out of nowhere.

Soon after writing down a couple of names next to suspicious transactions, I realised where those letters came from.

My Queen.

I had almost forgotten about her in all that drama.

«I will come back to you,» I whispered. «But I need to clean all of this first.»

I couldn't leave Martia the land in the condition of the previous time.

Also, I had to become better before meeting my Queen. I couldn't allow her any trace of doubt. I would have made her fall in love with me no matter what, using knowledge, physical talents, or even appearance.
