Kapitel 206: Behind Your Back

Camilla could only shake her head in disbelief. "B-but if your father was allied with Moraigth…why did your brother still lose his life?"

"That's something I'm still unsure about. There will probably never be a clear answer." Ned stared into the distance while his brow furrowed in concentration. "I don't know if John was sent to war knowing about the secret alliance or not. I don't know if he died through sheer bad luck or if King Kenneth simply used Father for his knowledge and then double crossed him. John's death absolutely shattered him though."

Camilla closed her eyes, sorry she ever asked about the poor, mute servants of Ferrenthor.

"If your uncle had won the war and taken our throne, Father's deception would've never been an issue. But for King Kenneth to then lose…as you can imagine, the secret must remain carefully guarded. No one can ever speak of such a betrayal by the Marquis of Niarnol." Ned said.
