‘My lady, our contact has been captured by the emperor’s men.’ Alexia’s butler said to her while she is in the study, reading a book. She was not pleased to hear it, but what she wanted to know is the emperor’s condition and did not answer to let him finish what he is going to say. ‘His Majesty is currently recuperating in Hofburg Palace.’
‘So, he’s still alive?’ she asked herself. ‘Why couldn’t they just kill him and be done with it?’
‘My lady?’ the butler questioned, looking at her curiously.
‘It was nothing. I was just talking to myself.’ Alexia answered, still looking at the book. ‘It seems I have to take a more drastic measure.’ She murmured and wrote a note and handed it to her butler. ‘Make sure “he” gets this letter. And do not let anyone catch you.’ She said strictly stressing the last sentence.

His drawn sword glimmered and blurred as he swung it to his adversaries. He felt as if time has slowed, men are shouting on all sides at once and pointing their muskets and swords at the men opposite their sides.

He went back to work and when he is about to finish the days' worth, the emerald pendant Catherine gave him fell from his neck.
