Women's War
Kace lay soaking in the stone tub that he had Grugda refine further. 'It's already been two weeks since they sacked the city. So, why has Sarah stuck around in the ruins?' He felt the pent up stress being washed away as he considered what their next move should be. 'Lorget has done a fine job keeping an eye on her. I'm surprised he managed to avoid getting noticed.'
"Kace? Has there been any word of my mother yet?" Sophia's sorrowful voice came from the newly added second bath next to the one he was soaking in.
"Not yet," Kace sighed while being grateful for the stone wall between them. "We'll find her."
In truth, he did not have much hope of accomplishing this. When the army removed themselves from the city, he had Lorget check out the castle. The goblin had just reported what had seemed to be a room that was used for mass execution. The queen's bedroom turned out to be empty. There was no sign of Sonja nor Raven's body.
