The Public Engagement II

As Cain looked behind Marina he noticed something that made his blood boil. The faces glaring at her seemed as sharp as knives. The people of Ourals still didn't approve of her, they did hold her in the same hand as her father.

That was to be expected, as the law of this country is that the whole family of a noble is responsible for him. That law was made so nobles can just farm the relatives and be done with all of their dirty deeds. For example, Marina's father seems to have said that his daughter was a witch that controlled him and that she was learning witchcraft from Morana.

To his bad luck, he didn't have a trial as Cain asked William to have him killed no matter what, and no one is going to refuse a serious order from a city-destroying monster like Cain.

"Some bad blood, it seems to linger in your hearts…" Cain stared at the crowd with a sad face.
