304 THE SEVEN KINGDOMS (1)

The atmosphere in the room was cordial.

Every once in a while the sound of someone sipping wine could be heard.

Aero was inside the room as he narrates his harrowing journey from Karak to Veranis to Viola. He also told Viola how he made contact with his spies and since the spies is under his orders, they all shelter him.

Aero did not want his whereabouts to be known. He also had some other news that he got that delay his return to Vanheim even more

Viola listens intently and then she got the gist of the story.

'Someone framed you in Karak?' She asks

Aero nodded with a bitter smile.

Being on the other side of the scheme really felt bitter, he thought to himself.

Then he took another sip of wine and said but clearly non one believes that it was him that initiated that massacre.

Even the scholars who would find out the truth that it would be hard to pin down the crime on him.
