Duchess Cassandra walked out of the royal palace.
Emperor Cedric has called her, to discuss things. Lord Bentham had sent word that he had found some people who were a darkness mages. Although he was traveling with them now, he wanted to bring them back to the Empire.
Duchess Cassandra was called into the palace to discuss their fate. Although they could not be introduced as a darkness mages, they needed to be brought back. One cannot completely overshadow its true power. Cassandra knew that as well. Although they could control other elements as well such as fire, wind, water, or earth, they only got it after a long time.
Emperor Cedric was worried about how the people would react. Maybe they will fear that the Vivere Kingdom's people were still alive and would take over them.
