After a short pause, Cornelia asked, “What are His Majesty’s plans for that child? As of now, only the leaders and their direct subordinates know of her existence, but once news of her staying here in Ronan reaches the ears of the ordinary folks, discontent is bound to happen. The resentment of those who lost their loved ones to humans will protest her stay here.”

Leeora sighed. “Even among my clan, some of the older elves are already asking me for a meeting.”

“She is a curious child, but I do not understand why His Majesty refuses to send her to the human villages. In the past, we gave humans a chance to interact with us, thinking maybe this time they would be different, but we paid a heavy price for that wishful thinking. Even if she’s a child…It’s a rule we implemented to protect our peace and we followed for more than a century. His Majesty himself had approved it…”

“I am sure that Sire will make the right decision,” Leeora assured.

“Knowing His Majesty, since he had her be kept under your care, that means he plans to keep her here for good,” Cornelia concluded. “If only we can prove that she is not human, then no one would protest against her living among us. The races would even protect her like family.”

“However, the King has always been willful. He does not interfere with our affairs, but if Sire makes a decision, no one dares stop him,” Leeora added, “He always did what he liked.”

“That is true, Elder Leeora, but for the internal peace of the kingdom, he has to consider the opinions of his people. We have been living here in harmony without any disturbances from the outside world and we should ruin that because of one human.”

The Head of the Witches sighed. “I would like to believe so. I wish Her Eminence is here with us. Unlike King Draven, Her Eminence is easy to approach and talk with. If she were here, we would not be left guessing like this.” _{freewēbnoveℓ.com}
