A Witness

Ailwin recognized the woman, even though he hadn't seen her in two decades. He had searched for her extensively after Helena died but had never been able to find her.

"I hope you recognize this woman, Your Majesty," Luis said. "Lady Fiana, Queen Helena's lady-in-waiting and the sole witness to her murder."

Ailwin snapped back to attention. "Where did you find her?"

"Your Majesty, as your loyal servant, I have never given up on any matter that concerns our kingdom. Queen Helena's demise was a tragic incident, and even after two decades, I have not stopped seeking the truth. One of the reasons I returned to the capital this time was because I found important clues and proof of who killed the previous queen. Once we make it clear, I believe Your Majesty will punish the criminal and his family for treason. I, along with all the ministers, demand justice for our queen's unfortunate demise and the punishment of the traitors."
