On the other side of the palace, Alex's parents were also getting dressed inside their room. In a few minutes, they would be entertaining their guests for their scheduled breakfast and other activities for the day.
"Did you know what The Council was planning when they announced Alex's right to the throne?" Katherine asked her husband, knowing that he was a member of The Council of Elders.
