The three were the only ones left in Reia's office. Funny, considering it was full of assassins last time she visited. Still, it looked like Jaakuna was back to his usual, mischevious self. Emiri winked at Jaakuna and stood up. "[b]So long as you're with me, I don't see why not.[/b]" She told him at his question of wandering the castle. "[b]There isn't too much to see, but if you want a look around, we can.[/b]" She told him.

For the first time in what seemed like ages, Grant's jaw dropped. He was in complete shock. The group thought Jaakuna had lost it, but as it would turn out, Nadeline was the one who was losing her mind. What the hell was she thinking? They didn't know what was going on, did she think she could take advantage of the confusion and dethrone his sister? Reia wasn't going down without a fight, the fact that she wasn't in Stigma definitely foretold she was up to something, Lorenzo and Karolina were concerned about something--no, no, he was not going to let her. He put his hand on his forehead, trying to calm himself down. He looked at Wesley, and almost wanted to hit him. The fact that he told him warranted that the prince was not an idiot. He wondered if he even objected to Nadeline's plan, whatever it was.

After a moment of inward struggling, Grant found the will to speak. "[b]Why in the world would she do such a thing?[/b]" He asked, somewhat exasperated.
