At night
Emperor Frederick opened his eyes and looked at his sleeping wife. She had traces of tears on her face. After returning from the throne room, Empress Mary cries in her husband's arms.
Emperor Frederick gently lifted her head from his arm, which was used as a pillow by his wife. He doesn't want to wake her because she fell asleep after crying for long hours.
Emperor Frederick wasn't able to fall asleep. He has questions that are going to be answered by Mage Luke. Emperor Frederick decided to go to the tower and talk with him. He walks out of the room.
The guards seemed to notice his presence, so they bowed their leaders, and one among them asked, "Your Majesty, Do you need anything?"
Emperor Frederick shook his head and ordered, "No one is allowed to follow me or know I am not in the castle." They nodded their heads and went back to their respective work.
