Out with the Skeletons

I wake up late because of the exhaustion of the ball and the things that weigh on my mind. It is afternoon, so I make my way to Magnolia and find the entire family gathered there.

"What is going on?" I ask as I see my parents, King Cosmos and Radley all gathered there. "We can finally overthrow the Ponceau's," my father says seriously. I shake my head, "What do you mean?" He hands me a paper and I look at it until my eyes widen.

"Kris is a Ponceau," I say with a shocked expression, "you think the others are alive too?" "He is the heir," my mother says kindly, "he needs to be protected so one of the guards should go get him." Everyone nods as a guard hurriedly does just that.
