Capítulo 53: Chapter 53 Who's the Champion?

​

 Everyone involved in the game returns to the palace after the game, and the final outcome of the game is announced in the book King's Witness.

 Every one gave Meiss their pockets of dog-slaves, and he counted each man's catch. A servant who specialises in counting stood beside Meiss as he recorded on a piece of paper the names of each man and the number of ears captured by the dog-slaves.

 Emily knew that she was going to lose, for she had only captured two Dog slaves, and there was probably no one less.

 All were in their seats, waiting patiently, when Emily saw Queen Mary, her face flushed, her hair, which had been neatly combed, a trifle dishevelled, coming slowly down the side of the palace, followed by a good-looking page.

 Queen Mary sat in her place as if nothing had happened, and she did not even communicate with the King. At this point, Meiss walked up to the king and queen and told them the final outcome of the game.
