487 Chapter 487 Heart to Heart with Lyra

Seeing the lost, almost hopeless look in Lyra's eyes, Marcus could tell that she was grasping at what to do with her life now.

Certainly, she had lost pretty much everything she had cared about to this war.

Her parents were dead, the path she had been on was now completely uprooted, and in the end, she had even had to kill her mentor who had stood on opposing sides.

Now all she had was the position of duchess, which she took more as a means to an end in order to accomplish her goal of revenge than for anything else

Of course, she cared about the people within her parents' former and now her territory, but it was simply her duty, not something she ever wished to have.

Originally Lyra never would have even taken the position of duchess, since she had become a great knight and would not have been able to hold another title.

Still, as the circumstances pushed her towards this path, she had done what was necessary to advance her goal at the time.
