章 1048: Lord Nolan

The room watched with muted intrigue as Remus made himself scarce, disappearing as quickly as he had appeared before them, the clanging of the chains soon disappearing far, far into the distance.

And it was only once the young general was out of earshot that Lady Miranda shot back at Alexander in a slightly offended tone, "My lord, all these… barricades you asked for in the streets. How will the people move about then?"

She did not openly counter Alexander but tried to poke in a diplomatic way.

The main point here was of course not people going in and out, it was only the excuse.

Lady Miranda mainly did not like Alexander declaring such large orders all by himself.

Especially when these 'constructions' would mean the roads would be ruined, the houses would be destroyed and much more importantly, the people living in those houses whose walls he just ordered to be destroyed, will be displaced.
