Later that night…
Jacinta watched as the candle started to burn. She just lit and enjoyed the scent it brought.
"It was amazing. It was discovered by a mage while experimenting on how to make candles last long with magic. Then that mage thought, "What if we added a grinded flower scent to it, changing the smell from just wax…"
Joaquin paced back and forth in Jacinta's room. "You sure do have a lot of time right now." Jacinta said as she drank the tea prepared by Edina. She looked at the time, it was already 9:00 in the evening.
Joaquin grinned and took the seat. "Well, the empress is busy shutting down the new accomplishment of the twins. So maybe I have some free time until tomorrow."
"What ifs? We are treading on that line now, isn't it Jacinta?"
"Judea's and my letters both mentioned the death of the second young lord of Zubel and Martina's arm being severed. While Judith contained the possible future where they both escape their fates."
