The palace

The council members were at the throne room waiting for Derrick, Warrick and Joshua to return with good news.

Derrick got back first.

/"Did you find her?/" Queen Valerie asked. She was so worried and terrified.

/"No. I’ve searched every nook and cranny of the central region. Joshua has headed to the south and Warrick is at the north. Hopefully we’ll find her/".

/"Hopefully? What have I done to deserve this? Ever since she was born, people have been after her life. I want my baby girl back/", Queen Valerie yelled.

/"Mum, we’ll find her. The soldiers are going to every house in the country to search and question everyone/", Derrick said.

/"What if the Janricans have taken her?/" Miriam asked.

/"Then I’ll slaughter everyone in that kingdom till they provide her/", Derrick said, angrily.

Later in the evening, Joshua and Warrick returned without Kierra.
