"Just what is going on?!" Audrey shouted as she ran behind Celeste, who had come to her room as soon as the attack on the Palace of Light started.
"The Palace of Light is under attack," Celeste replied. "Presumably, this is a counter-offensive by William's subordinates after the Holy Order's repeated attack on the Ainsworth Empire."
"But how? Isn't the Palace of Light's whereabouts supposed to be a secret? How did they manage to find our location?!"
"Isn't the answer to that question very obvious? We have a spy, or spies, among our ranks. That is the only reason I can think of as to why the location of the Palace of Light has been compromised."
Audrey gritted her teeth as she ran alongside Celeste. What her sister said was right. There was no way someone could just take a stroll and find the Palace of Light, which had remained undiscovered for thousands of years.
"What about the others?" Audrey asked. "Cherry, Lira, Ephemera, Shana, and Melody?"
