Marina sighed, slumping against the couch. "I really, really hope that we made the right choice here." After feeling the sense of betrayal when they were captured, Marina had been a bit more pessimistic. Thankfully, Marco didn't betray them, but the girl just couldn't help but be wary of the Duchess who could suddenly turn against them.

 

"Didn't they say that the Princess and the King will be coming?" Marco asked, sitting on the couch, "We could use that time to escape since everyone would be distracted."

"That's if we find something suspicious about the Duchess though."

 

Marina thought deeply, "If we find something suspicious about her, maybe we can ask the King and Princess to help us?" Marco's face turned grim, however. "I don't know if that would work... but that could be an option."

 

"I like to think that they are better people," Marina said, although Erik did make a point. Nodding to Zaria who retreated to her own room, she decided to go to bed for the day. "I guess we should get some rest now. Let's talk about it tomorrow when we get the chance."

 

A new day dawned upon the team. Marina, who understood that the luxury they have right now comes with something in exchange, woke up from her sleep. She wasn't too excited about what they were going to do, but the Duchess comes with power and knowledge. Marina hopes that this power and knowledge will help them find Atlantis, as promised by the Duchess.

A knock on the door alerted Marina as she stood up and replied with "Come in." As soon as the girl replied, the door to their chambers opened, revealing a man wearing formal Merlourn clothing. Dark green dominated his outfit, his coat donning designs that looked like vines but were colored gold. He wore golden glasses and had a pocket watch attached to his blazer.

"Pleased to make your acquaintance," he spoke as he bowed, his voice carrying an elegant aura. "I am Rigel, her Grace's Advisor. I will be the one to organize your schedules by orders of the Duchess."

The maids Zaria saw seem to be panicking as they try to move quickly from one place to another. A number of maids were carrying baskets filled with fruits and vegetables, while another group was carrying linen. There were also some maids tending to the flowers in the garden. Zaria could hear parts of what the maids were talking about, such as "King and Princess," "urgent matters," and "arriving today."

 

"Don't worry, it is not as formal as it sounds," Rigel spoke as he fully went inside the room. "It is more like helping you choose the location you will be purifying next so that we can prepare enough escorts." He then turned to Zaria who seemed confused. "I am Rigel, her Grace's Advisor. You really have not missed a lot."

"If you have any questions regarding the duchy, I would be happy to answer them. Today will be a busy day, after all, with the King and Princess arriving sometime this afternoon."
