Chapter 106: One Hundred and Sixth

The next several days were, for the most part, calm.

A fierce rainstorm rolled into Verilonia not long after Merwyn returned her back to her room.

The rainstorm was fierce enough that there could neither be proper testing for Keys in the palace, nor could any effective travel to other nations happen.

All trade was temporarily halted.

Travel in the weather was all but impossible.

Which meant there was very little for Emily to do but remain indoors.

Fortunately, however, the palace did have plenty of indoor entertainment available to her, and so her time spent there passed surprisingly peacefully and happily.

It was as if the storm had a calming effect on everything, and even when she encountered Kieran, he simply passed her by and ignored her like she didn't exist.

Which...

Still pissed her off.
