Chapter 36
The crowds had already gathered by120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0rWtbeXXp
the time Vander had left the basement and been brought outside. He could feel120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPrMsxbIBg
that everything was placed on a knife’s edge just waiting for someone to do120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDrgYRkzrR
something to light a match under the powder keg. There were five soldiers in120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuo6V2Y0kcj
front of him, two of them were holding the chains to his hands, while the five120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwXmoQlNPH
behind him were holding his leg iron chains. There were guards surrounding him120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuF6WKAmmJ6
as well to keep anyone from trying anything, or to keep him from escaping.
“How do you like the crowd?”120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASbJnhGB3B
Vander turned his head to see Leon smirking next to him. Leon had always felt120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5F60iw8rN
inferior to Vander, he wasn’t sure why, but it was always a one-sided contest120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaJfqKShoo
between the two of them.
“I’m glad to see you haven’t120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjQ5S5YNbB
changed at all.” Vander snorted. “I assume that this was your doing?”
“Of course.” Leon laughed. “I120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGMkpaFqfA
wanted everyone to see you fall. It would make quite the story don’t you120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq775MHPfsJ
think?”
“If you think this will change120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iyYnLfy2j
anyone’s mind about you, you’re sadly mistaken.” Vander shook his head. “You’re120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGulm9nRJBG
still just a baby hiding behind his father’s power. No one will respect you. No120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44Atu59xLp
one will like you. The sooner you face facts, the happier you will be.”
“I don’t have to take that from a120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CWDzUyfLY
king slayer.” Leon hissed. “I’ll be there in the front row when they hang you.”120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGa0oWraPH9
With that Leon walked off to the front of the procession.
As they made their way into the120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuak6xZWMSH
east district, Vander saw some familiar faces amongst the crowd. Many of them120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYjCfliLg5
he had helped in the past and while he was glad to see them, he was embarrassed120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmashlRnQ8
to have them see him like this. He wasn’t Malcolm’s killer, but did the others120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19tIPW6c0S
believe him? It was hard to be sure. His eyes met Julianna’s. She didn’t look120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqArqZx8UxS
away, but her face was grim. He turned away from her.
“Vander!” He heard her shout.120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBWa1ypnTO
“Don’t give up, we’re with you!” He looked over to see that Julianna had held120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3FWWrOta6
her fist up in the air. Slowly and surely the others did the same. They didn’t120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2ISR19z0U
scream, they didn’t shout, they didn’t rush the soldiers to free him. They120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKHIcqVEB3
showed solidarity with him, as if they didn’t believe what was being said about120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cozXs6sVV
him. He would have to prove their trust in him was correctly placed.
“Keep it moving!” one of the120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4V1LWP3oUI
guards shoved Vander in the back causing him to stumble. He caught himself and120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7T9SNLvGjU
kept walking.
The road through the middle120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRqldUe6mB
district was cleared for everyone. The nobles didn’t care about this, it was120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wXpZnz6ZS
below their station. They were likely asleep or cheating on their spouses. It120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kpkm1C4Jj
was those in the third ring that would give him the most difficult time: the120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFdIRNlmDS
comrades he served with for most of his life. It was their judgement that would120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmhDAwjPB4
hurt the most. Nothing could prepare him for what he expected to face from120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNENa8ZOMC
them.
The Blades were standing on both120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcV48cYULW
sides of the road with the rest of the army behind them. He knew Alex wasn’t120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNADorrKXN4
there, but he saw Chicken, Rooster, Forest, Briar, and Eve standing amongst120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2bpBDa0g3
them. In the few months he had been gone, it looked as though they had aged120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKR7ltU6PX
considerably. He could tell Chicken was close to tears, but she held them back.120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOEqijLfuX
Rooster looked straight ahead with a bewildered expression on his face. Forest120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0MRJX6j5v
and Briar held each other’s hands, but Eve looked annoyed for some reason. He120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6FSmivy8t
felt a little bad that his grandfather wasn’t around. He had taken the brunt of120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAvwhdAyWi
the punishment and now it would be his turn if he couldn’t convince the council120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLV680NB74
he was innocent.
He was brought up the castle steps120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcBGdzmR9m
then towards the council chamber. Most of his guard detail was left behind with120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxz6ysBYiE
only the four guards holding his chains, Eric Jilena, and Leon escorting him to120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetM8wDIvHY
the council chamber for judgement to be passed upon him. However, they took him120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYTmQzWhgl
to the throne room instead. Two Blades opened the door revealing the large120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfF4hlqYVP
empty space, the only thing there was the throne where Cuvera was sitting.120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZybRk87WQB
Behind him was Kiara and Eliza. Spaced evenly around them were the remaining120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPSrjDoU41
council members and they did not look happy in the least.
Peyton Cranton sat next to Cuvera120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUZQL8HmYR
with a small smile on his face. He had likely been waiting for this for a very120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClkKKx4T36
long time.
“We brought him.” Eric pulled the120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6VosvmFEJ
chains causing Vander to stumble, falling to his knees.
“Remove the chains.” Cuvera120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkfYLy6k9D
instructed.
“My King?” Eric asked. “Is that120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7o2aTAMCGr
wise? He already killed your father and my son. He’s dangerous. He should be…”
“I gave you an order General.”120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNECaCYfKTF
Cuvera snapped. “Do not make me repeat myself.” Eric debated whether to120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeR01em2WY
disobey, but eventually he relented. Vander felt the chains leave his hands120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsSqZL2u2s
then clatter on the ground. He rubbed his wrists tenderly hoping to get the120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1EDAe9IcT
feeling back into them. “Step forward.”
Vander walked until he was ten120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbH1hWPXo4h
feet away from the throne, before dropping to one knee, bowing in front of his120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnbOfVuDQO
friend. He looked up to see that Cuvera had aged considerably these past few120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwk3FpWXpET
months. He was now sporting a thick brown beard. His eyes were dark, likely not120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzUZAamsE6
getting enough sleep, and it appeared as though Kiara was pregnant with their120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXy4QbL7Yb
first child. She was looking at Vander with a worried expression on her face.120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cuUvgZMmV
Eliza’s face was unreadable, but he detected some concern in her eyes. He120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sP38C7rHo
didn’t want to give anything away, so he just kept his eyes focused straight120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeV1pmmPRTg
ahead.
He noticed that the four Warden’s120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAHIvlJDYp
from the other regions were also in attendance. Jewelthorne looked bored, as if120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBghxpe4Eq7
he had been forced to be there. Valyrian looked at him with disgust while120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlV74Eqs5Ws
Whitesun, the one he knew the least, looked at him with interest. Mari looked120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82mZzzaVrg
at him with a small smile, as if she was telling him that everything was going120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiyTt1zH8a
to be alright. Despite her demeanor, he felt that it was going to be everything120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoxWvpOHgK
but.
“You know why you are here,120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EAOq42Pnp
Vander, Blade Captain?” Cuvera’s voice echoed through the room.
“Yes.” Vander admitted. “I am120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GMhLvc0wr
accused of killing Malcolm and Jeffery Jilena.”
“Last night you were also seen120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhSNagH2wM
fleeing from the northern district right before Humi, Humjir’s head priest, was120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WcS72wXuI
found dead.” Cuvera explained.
“Humi died?” Vander was120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuvQ3OFUDR
disappointed. He had hoped that the guards would have gotten there in time, but120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtESEAVygU
he guessed wrong.
“What do you have to say for120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIIRHBM1yk
yourself?”
“Innocent on all accounts.” A120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRML35M4fmB
collective gasp went up from the council members. Anna Jilena looked like her120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDZUwPVLwP
head was about to explode.
“I’ll give you a chance to tell120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhJav5M1tU
your side of the story.” Cuvera said. “Explain to me how Lord Cranton saw you120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72dWjvSGyR
kill my father, us all watching you flee the room in a hurry, then finding120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hH4Q3ew6F
Jeffery Jilena dead on the ground with his throat cut.”
“I see.” Vander sighed. “Must we120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKb5e4hGBi
do this in front of them?” He motioned towards the council. “I’d rather just120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutl6Sxt861
talk to you alone.”
“So, you could kill him?” Peyton120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LYNLeW2Ap
laughed. “I think not. You’re the criminal here, you don’t get special120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pTNmc0mox
treatment.” As much as he hated to admit it, Peyton was right. So, he told them120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxH8LbdkmWu
what had happened.
He started by talking about what120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIbphlkahR
had happened in the catacombs when Cuvera went to visit his mother. Boar had120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdb68ai140l
come to him in a vision, telling him to grab the book on the gods that Malcolm120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡct6bkKEpMH
had shown him in his office. Not bothering to question his ancestor, Vander120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQaoqWZIIC
waited until everyone was distracted before sneaking into the library and120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz88S8WpMQ3
grabbing the book. Malcolm had seen him, but before either of them could say a120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgljnYcjWxh
word to each other Peyton had run him through with a sword.
Peyton didn’t even flinch when120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zRPEKXr7y
Vander pointed at him, and while some of the council members looked at him120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBcYtTRuva
sideways, Vander could tell very few believed him.
After that, he ran away because he120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcXSbh2FIc
knew Peyton would blame Vander for the deaths even though he had nothing to do120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbMm5OxZSh
with it. Jeffery had found him on the lawn but had asked Vander to knock him120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPgGn9ngQQ
out then escape. Vander punched him in the stomach before jumping against the120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf98Iw00vgo
wall.
Topal whispered to the council120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ry31TGp3s
member next to him, but it was so quiet that Vander could hear what was being120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjUgcqiXLk
said.
Vander continued. He fled to the120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWq8Q6bvw8T
Orange Fox because he knew the stigma surrounding the place would keep him safe120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYNtDuQOnG
while he could figure out what to do next. For three months he used the120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxq0iEKCob
resources available to him to track down and find the Serpents, however he120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHFXGmkjlM
didn’t go into too much detail. He killed seven of them, then discovered a note120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkmDm8qjOa
sending an assassin known as Fang after him. Afterwards he went to talk to Humi120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtq7WnlRuNf
when they were attacked by an assassin. He told Vander to flee while holding120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1uYzObp0h
them off, but he guessed he didn’t last much longer after that.
“Then you found me two days120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaoVPj390l
later.” Vander finished. “That’s all that happened.”
“Seems whoever you talk to just120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KROWPei8O
seems to be killed.” Peyton said. “There is a pattern here, Vander, I’m not120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx34fV0RZRW
sure if anyone else can see it, but I can.”
“I also agree with Peyton.” Anna120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeNOGjIMc5
Jilena seethed. “My son is dead because of you. Your story of what happened is120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJJ4Uv5YqI
nonsense. My son’s throat was cut, there no question there.”
“If I may.” Topal raised his hand.120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEv3Ord1Zc
“When I did the autopsy of Jeffery, I noticed some discoloration around his120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGtVLvxUPL
diaphragm along with some bruising within his lungs. To me, it seemed as though120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡai9r7ycsdO
he had been struck five minutes before his throat was cut. There also wasn’t a120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxrY33jit2
blood trail leading from the body to the wall.”
“He killed him!” Anna screeched.120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkXNpfXeDF
Bickering broke out amongst the council members causing Cuvera to stand up from120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8zImhVsPx
the throne.
“Take him to the dungeons until we120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fOOUNLRK7
get this settled.” Cuvera instructed. Bowing his head, Eric placed his hand on120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFEpvz3alZ
Vander’s shoulders. Sighing, Vander stood up allowing himself to be led towards120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2X4pZ6Rxe
the dungeons.
Before Eric handed him over to the120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvoL0PVB28
jailers, he made Vander face him.
“My son, Jeffery, he respected you120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZraQnrO0t
a lot.” He spoke. “For his sake, I hope your innocent.”

“I am.” Vander nodded. Perhaps120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHoB9fuuXr
taking some solace at that fact, Eric gave him a small smile. He snapped his120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxKed4GRpu
fingers. The two jailers walked up, grabbed Vander’s arms, and brought him to120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNKH0buM5s
his cell. They pushed him into the dank, musty flat that had rags for a blanket120Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKv8V4QgRXn
and very little warmth. The slammed the door shut, covering him in darkness.
