Magnus stood atop a bustling wine shop alongside George, a haven frequented by vampires and thus, an ideal spot to evade the watchful eyes of Ivan Winfred.

This renowned establishment was a regular meeting ground for Magistrate Horace and Ivan, making it the perfect setting for their scheme. Unaware of Magnus's appearance, Ivan would be none the wiser when Magnus, disguised as a mere server, would be the one to pour his wine that day. 

"Your Highness, look there," George whispered urgently, gesturing towards a lone carriage making its way down the path to the wine shop. The fluttering flag bearing the kingdom's crest atop the carriage confirmed their suspicions—it was indeed the magistrate's carriage.

With no time to spare, Magnus and George slipped into their disguises as servers, a guise that would render them invisible to Ivan's plain sight.
