Sneaking In

When Oriana reached the guest mansion designated for the delegation of Abetha, the knights easily recognized her as Prince Arlan's aide. There was only one servant from Griven with a headwrap—the young physician who treated their liege's hand injury. 

"May I ask what brings you here, Physician Orian?"

"I am here to bring medicine for the Crown Prince of Abetha," Oriana readily informed the knight who spoke. "Is there anyone inside I can speak with to leave instructions on how it's administered?" 

"Ah, yes, please wait inside the drawing room. I will call His Highness's attendant."

The knight let her inside the mansion without suspicion. Along the way, she began to study the layout of the mansion while making small talk with the servant who escorted her. An innocent smile hung on her lips as she found the hallways empty.

'As expected, this timing is best.'
