Marianne opens her mouth to say some things when Richard speaks up, his voice cracking with emotion.

The Duke looks away, his expression conflicted. He is reluctant to side with anyone until there is concrete evidence.

"You may not believe me, but I have evidence," Marianne says with a smug grin. She reaches into his pocket and pulls out a small piece of paper, unfolding it to reveal a crudely-drawn sketch. She takes it toward the king and bows.
