Zani, who was still behind Sylus, was evidently shocked by what she was hearing.
Despite it being daytime, one could feel the cold breeze blowing from the windows in the throne room.
The sounds of birds flapping around the castle echoed, almost as though they were curious to know what was happening inside.
At the center of it all was Sylus, his eyes wide with realization.
His father… just told him the truth.
For years, Sylus had wondered why he was always drawn to uncovering the truth about what happened to the first queen.
True, he wanted to clear his mother's name, make her walk anywhere in the kingdom, and be showered with praise rather than hate.
But there were other ways he could have attained that.
Gathering the trust of the people through his inventions and then using that as a medium to get people to understand how good a person Elizabeth was would have worked as well.
No doubt.
