Mona jolted awake as she quickly sat up from where she lay. Looking around, the last thing she remembered was their convoy being attacked. She remembered her son Amon rallying the guards around him, only for all of them to fall as he took it upon himself to defend her. She then heard some yelling, then darkness took her.
Still, where was everyone?
"Oh, you're awake, Queen Mother."
She blinked in surprise as she saw Lera sitting by her bedside. The woman was still on edge, and she could only assume that it was caused by their current situation.
"Where's Amon?" Mona immediately asked. "Is everything alright?"
Hearing her questions, Lera let out a weary sigh before she responded. "In terms of things being alright, unfortunately, that's a word I wouldn't use to describe the current situation," she lamented. "As for His Majesty, King Amon ran off to find Queen Bella and those that abducted her. Unfortunately, we couldn't stop him in time."
