"Did you hear?"
"Hear what?"
"The Emperor stopped by the Women's Pavilion last night!"
"He does that every now and then, what is so much to whisper about that?"
"You fool! He stopped by the Moonveil Palace!"
"You don't say!?"
This was at the Velarys Dome, and somewhere in the servant's quarters, the same tale was being repeated.
"I heared his Majesty stopped by Moonveil Palace last night!"
"He did!? Heavens! Does that mean it is true that her Grace is his lover?"
Silence.
"Everyone is talking about it." Said Fiona, one of Aurora's knights as the ones sober from last night sad down together to have their breakfast, their faces stern and serious. "Word has already spread."
"About what?" Asked Rea, having had fallen asleep last night after she was done helping the drunk ones to bed. Fiona glanced at some of the other sober knights, those of who had stayed up all night in order for the 'emergency'.
