Capítulo 227: The Runaway Queen

News hit Titans Landing early the next morning—of the escape of the Dowager's favorite prisoner.

Lilith entered in from the castle at Darkwake in haste, descending the levels into the dungeons of Eragonn swiftly on her peculiar horned steed; she had managed in a year after the fall of the Capitol to appropriate and acculturate the polis back into a semblance of unity, she did not desire to give the dissenters—those still loyal to the Fae lines a holdfast to bank their revolution on, so for the time being she put her black dragon to the mountains in the east and instead used this [Hel Mutant] stallion as her ride.
