Life in the castle proceeded like normal; everything was fine except for the few maids panicking outside of Arad's room, running all around to prepare for the evening.
The news didn't even get out of the hallway, let alone out of the private quarter. At this moment, not all of Arad's wives knew what was coming soon.
But what could the maids do? None of them knew Linda, let alone had any idea about how they could help a drakaina. They were pretty sure that human women aren't supposed to get pregnant and give birth within a day.
They tried asking her, but the aloof Linda ignored them immediately, saying that she was busy. Saying that, she was only sitting on the bed, looking at the mirror in front of her, without doing anything. It took a lot of effort from the maids to bathe and dress her.
