Weeks passed after the battle near Vonduhr.
The official report was that the soldiers from the Muwlos family had been assaulted by bandits and the young heir, Samuel, lost his life in the process.
However, among the large-size families, the truth was clearly known.
The families loyal to the Cause thought that by using a noble heir that was also a former student in the academy, the reaction of the Royals wouldn't have been so harsh.
Yet, their expectations weren't met and they suffered quite a loss.
The soldiers in their mansion were more valuable than the criminals that they faced.
The Royals could refill those numbers at ease while the nobles had to slowly nurture worthy guards, it was clear who had been the winner in that event.
That's why their plans were delayed and an apparent peace returned since there hadn't been consequences after that battle.
Noah vaguely guessed much but he simply didn't care.
