“Your Majesty, Baroness Zahradnik has returned to the palace.”
A pure smile filled Draudillon’s expression as she put her hands together in front of her. The Captain brightened in response.
“Oh!” Draudillon said, “It brings Us joy to know that the Baroness has returned! We were wondering where she disappeared to.”

“What have you found out about him?”
Deep in the Queen’s Apartments in the Royal Palace of the Draconic Kingdom, Draudillon Oriculus held her arms out while a lady-in-waiting towelled off her body. The gentle scent of her favourite fragrance rose from the bath nearby.

Desore curled up more tightly into the corner of her tiny home, pressing her mouth and nose against her knees. She would have hidden her face as well, but her eyes were fixed on the window. A hulking shadow crossed over the slits of the shutters, then stopped.

A gust of cool night wind lifted the torn silk curtains, carrying with it the stench of char and the sounds of a city forlorn.
The screams were the worst. No matter how hungry; no matter how weak; they somehow always found it in them to scream. Soft, yet piercing, their wordless cries of desperation, terror and anguish filtered through the broken balcony window, echoing throughout the throne room as if to c...
