Chương 217: Conspiracies and rising tensions

Esmé's glare told Lilli that the woman wasn't particularly keen on joking around and, while the paladin wanted to complain about the cold welcome, she knew that Esmé had become almost as stressed as she was.

"Yes, I'm late. Sorry for the delay, but Countess Agapov seemed particularly content to have a tryst in the bushes near our message drop off. I had to wait until she left. Though, based on those two you were talking to, I doubt me being on time would have saved you."

The Grand Dowager Empress grimaced but nodded. She could hardly blame Lilli for the frivolities of those in court, but that didn't stop it all from being a huge hindrance. Communicating without others overhearing them had immediately become one of their most pressing issues, and now that time was cut back even more.

Hey you! Yeah, you!

Welcome to my uncommon (but still somewhat necessary) sale's pitch!

It's been a while since I last shamelessly promoted myself other than the discord, but here we go~

Lost: To Be Found continues to be something that I'm increadibly proud of and, while I don't manage to work on it as much as I would like on a weekly basis (something I hope to one day change in years to come when I can write full time), I still am working on ways to grow and improve my reader base. So as always, I'm always very open to feedback and hearing your thoughts.

Beyond that though I ask that, if you have the time, I'd greatly appreciate it if you could leave a review or share the novel with friends and others you might know who read webnovels. My own means of self promotion are somewhat limited at the moment, so be it sharing it or reviewing it, everything helps immensley! By this chapter, you've read over 588,500 words, so I feel like if anyone's thoughts on the novel matter most, it would be those of you who have read this far in.

That's the end of my little self promotion though. I need to thank you very much for all of your continuous support and, as always, I hope you're having a wonderful day <3
