When the queen appears at the end of the path with her own escort of sentries in tow, Lian collapses in a bow. Her clothes are now black and red. The hair gathered in a perfect bun gives you a regal look. She takes me by the arm and pulls me to her as we walk.

Liliana pleads. "Shhh...don't call me that!" I hiss. "My name is Sylvia now and I promise I will wake you up again. I just need you to stay asleep a bit longer. Please, Liliana. Don't argue with me," I say. Liliana growls inside me. "I don't like this," she whines and uses her force against me.

“Then use silverthorn to prevent spread. We can stretch the supply by mixing in lavender for milder symptoms.” One of the judges nodded slowly. “Interesting approach.” Lila went next and gave a bold, aggressive plan. The crowd cheered loudly for her. Round after round continued. Elara surprised herself and a few others by solving a difficult herbal combination puzzle faster than expected.
