53 The Central Harbor

Days passed after waking up from slumber, Faustina found herself in the Feuerlon manor. Her appearance was the first thing that she found different, and she could not help herself but to look at her distinct grey hair identical to that of the duchess who was now her "mother".

Her brothers were now the Feuerlon siblings who seemed to be too comfortable with her, completely unaware of the situation. Everyone in the manor seemed to worry about her health more than she do—and she could expect nothing less of it.

Faustina now remembers what happened the past few days she woke up.

The altered memories. The king's conspiracy. The Forsaken.

Eula's death.

She remembered her purpose—and she stood firm as she remembered her duty. What the king told her.

Although it is a lot hazier and everything is still a puzzle for her, Faustina realized that she could not go idle anymore. If she desires answers, she could do nothing but move forward. No one will hand her the answers, or baby her.
