Was it on purpose that the queen didn't tell more than what was needed? What was there to hide? Was she afraid that there would be some coup from within the other nobilities if they knew more?

Archer was beginning to suspect that it might have been something about the Darkling especially now that it was just too coincidental that a daemon had shown itself to Red.
And he had to be one of the very first daemons too! Perfectly just in time for the trials. Hopefully nothing goes wrong in the middle of the Midsummer Festival as the trials had been indefinitely postponed as far as he knew.
As Archer turned sharp into a corner, it took him quite some time to notice how he had come back once more at the hall that had a terrace overlooking the Southern Auroras.
The grand hall had beautiful potted plants that snaked along the walls and marble columns.
