Austria, October 24th 1800

9:41 PM

Freida was standing in the hallways. She had sent Violett to her room, and asked her to wait there.

After a while, Elias showed up, and Freida immediately looked at him.

Elias was frowning deeply. "What was this sudden noise?" he asked.

Freida sighed, and then shrugged her shoulders. "Nothing too important, just my husband wanting to kill both me and my daughter," she casually answered.

Elias widened his eyes. "What?!" he asked in confusion.

Freida nodded her head. "Yes, that's right. And I'm seriously starting to think about hiring your son as my guard angel, because he saved me again, this time from his attack," she said.

Elias stood there in silence for a bit, and then took a deep breath as he placed his hand over his forehead. "W-Wait, tell me everything that happened properly from the beginning! Where's Lukas?" he asked.
