did she finally die
I had to stifle a laugh at this, this angry Marianne was just like a frisky cat whose milk was at stake. She was ready to show her nails at every spoken word.

Just then Ian came running to me and told me about the emperor's attendance. And here I thought I could have a minute for myself.
"Excuse me, I have to go," I said and turned back without waiting for their reply.
As I walked to the sitting room, I saw the man, who used to be my friend, the present emperor of Forchestire empire,
"Glory to your majesty" I greeted him bowing a bit.
He looked at me with a smile, but it could not hide his strained face. What could have been expected from a man who just had his second marriage?
"Cassius, how was the sword practice of Killian?" he asked, initiating the conversion.
