The day Sigrid and Roland returned to the Vale was a dramatic one all through the kingdom. For starters, ten servants from the Shadowmere estate had been arrested for poisoning the food and drink of their masters. Servants killing noble masters!! it was worse than a scandal, it was terrifying.
An act like that would no doubt result in a cleansing in so many homes. Many servants, innocent or guilty would soon find themselves terminated from their posts.
The biggest scandal however was something that had occurred the night before, Emmah's pictures and video had appeared in the evening news paper, even the evening news had covered it.
Ever since Lord Bailey and Lord Aberdon were seen on television debating the news on marriage and education, every other Lord that held public office was keen to show off their knowledge and talent on the laws and general knowledge.
