When dawn again, Alexa woke up in Cymric's house, without hearing Romeo's familiar trill. She missed that. With a sigh, the princess gathered her strength to get up. Her spirit was less confident in the task ahead, today.
Her night had been consumed in the tower, with little news except for two important news that Balbo communicated to her. The first was that the Di Borghesi took Blue Eyes to an unknown place, probably a monastery or church in the countryside, to receive medical care.
And the second thing was that Prince Gutard had forbidden 'The Prince' to leave the chambers until they captured all the witches.

Finding people of absolute trust for the Prince's guard will be very difficult now. We shouldn't challenge the Sovereign Prince, there are many things overwhelming him right now."
