Capítulo 100: A Hopeless Quest

Rowena didn't expect Asher to quickly pick up on these small things. Still, her eyes were looking elsewhere as if she was deeply contemplating something with a hint of disconcert.

Asher could see that she was hesitating a lot and said, "Since last year, you had no one to talk to because you are the queen, but to me, you are more than just a queen. If something else is going on that isn't related to the kingdom, you can tell me…I am the only one you can speak to about things like this."

Rowena calmly took a breath as she looked at him and finally parted her lips to say, "It's…about something that happened just now…There is a place outside the kingdom…A place where my father and I used to visit every year."

Asher noticed her eyes getting a bit melancholic, wondering if this place was special since it was a place of old memories.

"What happened there?" He asked curiously.
