Chapter 134

• [Carnelia]
• "Get your mother," I shout at Orion just before the guards silence me, taking away my breath and my words. Strong arms lift me, keeping my body from hitting the ground, as I pass out in their arms from lack of oxygen.
• When I wake, I am locked in a cold, stone room in a part of the castle that feels like a familiar nightmare. It does have some comforts, like cushions and a window, so I guess I should be grateful, although I'm sure these luxuries were only afforded to me so that if Queen Eleanor were asked to defend her acts before the High Council she could say in all honesty that I was "given the comfort and dignity required for my station."
