Days at the palace were long and hot.
The summer season was at peak and the air was humid.
Freya and her ladies sat outside in the grounds under a shade, watching the soldiers training on the other side.
During the last couple of days more and more people had come to the palace. A mixture of noblemen and council members and their families.
Sir Langdon had explained that there would be a council meeting soon, where the King would address certain important issues that affected Treppa.
Freya hadn't expected for Sebastian to be so strategic and diplomatic in his way of ruling, from the war stories she had heard, she'd assumed that he was the type to go in sword first and explanations later.
Although the more time she spent around him, the more she wanted to understand him better.
He was blunt, and quite frank in his way of speaking but there was a hidden kindness to him that she saw when others weren't around.
