After that, the session was dismissed. No one approached Charlton, either in fear of getting embroiled in what's happening, or just plainly understanding that he wanted to be alone that instance.
On the other hand, Charlton tried to stop himself from wallowing in despair. He had to think. Right now, this was already the best outcome. Although island Lerise was a secluded island where political prisoners were sent and didn't allow for visitations, he knew that the punishment was already merciful enough as is. The conditions in the prison were bad, and it was the place of nightmare especially to the commoners who were thrown to the dungeons in the lower floors. However, he knew that more likely than not, his father would be placed on a better cell on the upper floors.
