The award ceremony’s day came and Azeph headed toward the royal palace after spending the last day in his family residence at the capital burning with impatience. He wanted to see Elin.Will had gone early after requesting an audience with her to ask her about her opinion and Azeph decided not to go to give him some privacy.As he made his way toward the sitting room where he was supposed to wait for the officer to lead them to the court room, he found all of his friends already waiting there.“Seems like I am the last one to arrive,” He said with a smile.“Louis had been spending some time here as for Noah and Alan they come yesterday and spent the night here,” Will said with a smile and Azeph sighed,He should have come earlier too. At least he would have had a chance to see Elin for a while. He had sent her a letter asking her about what she thinks about the king’s reward. Her answer had given him the relief he didn’t know he had needed.She told him that she thinks that he should

The award ceremony went uneventfully. Elinor had formally thanked her friends once more and the king made sure to award them properly for their heroic deeds. On top of granting them the “Royal Crest”, A medal that is only given to war heroes. The king had announced the raising of their status in society. Louis’ house had been made into a grand duchy effectively filling in the empty spot that had been left when the Pendragon house had been removed from the nobility. A decision that Elinor and her uncle had taken after days of thinking and pondering about it. There was nothing they could have done about it anyway. The Pendragon’s name had already been merged with the royal family. And it will remain so when she takes over the throne. Azeph’s house was granted the title of a duke, an honor that was only granted to very few families within the kingdom. While Will’s house became a county, despite the fact that Will had been hesitant about accepting the title due to his step mother. Wh

Although they knew Elin had a bit of an eccentric side to her. Her request still surprised them. They all knew that the loss of the ducal house was nothing to celebrate, Azeph knew how hard that decision must have been and he was worried that she was pushing herself again to be cheerful for their sake.“I thought that since everyone should be free that day, we could take some time to relax and chat, I didn't thank you properly yet for the last incident. It would be a good opportunity to celebrate your new titles too,” she said with a smile and Azeph looked at her for a while before nodding.“You're right it has been a while since we had tea together. Right everyone?” Noah said and it seemed like they all had been snapped out of their hesitation.“Yeah, and if it's you who's hosting, I will be looking forward to it. The things you make are always delicious. Right Azeph?” He asked“Y... Yes. I will gladly accept the invitation.” Azeph said smiling down at Elinor and she returned his sm

The guys were sitting around the lunch table at the dormitories when Noah spoke up."it's unlike elin to invite us like that." He said looking pensive."What do you mean?" Azeph asked.He had been wondering why Elinor wanted to do this all of a sudden but he had given up trying to figure out her intentions. She would tell them whatever she needed when the time comes. Although he had his suspiciousn about what she was going to say."Well, she never does anything before being sure that it suits everyone's plans, she's very considerate from that point, but today she just came out of the blue and said that she organized a tea party for us she didn't even ask if we had any plans that day or anything." Noah said."Did you have plans?" Azeph asked with a smile."It's not about that," Noah said with a sigh, "I didn't have any plans and even if I did I would have cancelled them for her. It's just that this is very unlike her..." "I guess she does have something to tell us. But still, Whatever

The cup that Louis had been holding shattered on the floor and everyone looked at Elinor with shocked silence for a while before a sriken expression overrode their faces."What's the meaning of this, Elin," Louis asked While Azeph stoor from his chair his eyes wide as he reached for her."You drank that didn't you?" He said his voice calm.A bit too calm to call it composed. He was still in shock. She looked at them, with a troubled expression, mixed with anger. How in the world did this happen?! She needed to think fast before it was too late.She needed to figure this out."Everyone, be careful, don't touch that tea it's poisoned..." She said.They all looked at each other, they knew that she was unrivaled in the domain of herbs. She could tell that they were all looking at her with a mixture of hope that she was making a mistake but Elinor knew that she wasn't mistaken.There was no mistaking the distinct smell of this tea. It was exactly the same as that day. She wasn't going to m

Azeph felt like he had been stabbed on the chest when he saw Elinor's hands filled with blood. He watched her as she went limp in his arms blood covering the front of her dress and tickling out of her lips in a thin line staining over her porcelain skin.His hands trambled as he held her in his arms and his mind raced with millions of thoughts. "Elin..." His voice whispered but she didn't answer. Her eyes were closed and she remained listless in his arms her head tilted to the side.His mind was in jumbles and he was about to scream in madness. He couldn't lose her, this can't be happening. He can't live without her, she can't leave him like this. Not when they promised to spend their lives together."She's still alive, but her pulse is way too weak." Louis said as he took her wrist and checked her pulse, something that Azeph counldn't even think about doing."I..." Azeph mumbled still in shock."Get it together," Louis said in a hard tone that shook Azeph and made him snap out of hi

The doctor looked at Azeph and shook his head hopelessly. Azeph felt as if his world collapsed with that single motion and he felt himself take one step forward then wobble for a moment before pulling himself together and walking toward him and standing in front of him."How's her condition?" He asked quietly."Not very good I am afraid. Her body is under so much strain. It seems to have been a very strong poison." The doctor said darkly, "Her organs are barely holding on as it is. And I can't chance to give her any calming medicine because I'm afraid that they would react with the poison and make her state worse. If only you knew the nature of her poison..." The doctor finished and Azeph sighed and stepped back.Louis who was silently standing behind him stepped forward."I'm afraid that we still don't know the nature of the poison. We will need an investigation to figure that out." Louis lied easily.Meanwhile, Azeph fought not to clench his hands into fists. He knew that divulging

"So in the end it happened,..." The headmaster said with a sigh as he watched the doctor leave the room.Future who was by his side made his way toward the side cabinet and pulled out a bottle of whiskey pouring himself a cup and offering one to both Louis and the headmaster.Louis refused, and the headmaster gratefully agreed taking the cup and downing it in one gulp. The poor man was so stressed and worried that he was taking soliste in alcohol."She was going to tell them everything today..." Louis said and Future looked at them quizikally."Everything about what?"He asked as he walked toward them his cup in his hand."She was going to leave the Acedemy in the end of the year," Louis said."Why?" Future asked, "It took the headmaster so much effort to convince his majesty to let her come back." "The situation with the neightboring countries is already unstable thanks to the recent events. They think that our monarchy is falling appart. She needs to be there and set an example to m
