บท 93: FOILED ESCAPE

[Music Recommendation: Tattoo ~ Loreen]

Oriana walked straight to her room after spending some time on the balcony. She tried to act less suspicious, thinking Adric would put someone to watch her. When she got to her room, there was no guard. Oriana quickly entered and had her bath, changing out of the dress that would attract more attention if she were to escape.

Putting on something simple, Oriana walked to the door with just her necklace and gown. Then she paused.

"I need money to sustain Freya, Louis, and myself." She walked inside the room and packed some of her best jewelry before getting ready to depart. When she first opened the door, a maid was passing by. She closed it and waited for a few minutes before checking again. This time the passage was clear with just a dimly burning lantern.
