"Where has the First Legion reached now?" Olivia asked her subordinates.
"They will arrive at the outskirts of The City of Saint Rose before sunset," one of her subordinates reported.
Olivia nodded, then quickly arranged, "First, restore order in the capital, calm the people's fears, then expose William's conspiracies, and yes, have the heirs of the Sword and Shield families come to see me."
"Are you asking those nobles to make a choice?" Caroline worried. "Will they truly support Her Highness the Princess?"
"Don't worry, they'll side with whoever wins," Sir Caesar Johnson scoffed. "Who else holds power now besides us? These nobles are terrified of death."
"Don't be so sure, there's actually another force," Monica looked into the distance, her vampire senses alerting her to a sneaky group approaching.
"I smell it... the disgusting scent of holy light..." she frowned.
