HOME ISLAND OF MOUNT ORASANI -- PALACE THRONE ROOM
That afternoon, in the palace throne room, The Elder Kings and Queens; Ames and Nadia, Cyrus and Ismene, Dimitris and Celia, Elias and Zenova, and Tithous sits at a table, looking through some books and maps.
Theseus and Christy enters the palace throne room with Handmaiden Lisabeth. "Elders?"
The Elders looks at Theseus, Christy and Handmaiden Lisabeth.
"Theseus? Christiana?" The Elder King Dimitris asked. "What is it?"
"Lisabeth?" Christy said.
Lisabeth looks at Gemma as she slowly walks up next to Theseus and Christy.
"What is she doing here?" Elder Queen Ismene asked.
"Lady Christiana told me that Disgraced Lady Gemma somehow had escaped from the penitentiary." Theseus told them.
"And Disgraced Lady Gemma claims that she has something." Christy said.
"All due respect to you daughter, Theseus and Lisabeth, but what does Disgraced Lady Gemma have to say that would make us believe any false lies that she speaks?" Elder King Ames asked.
"Gemma?" Christy said, gently folds her arms.
A short moment of silence is between them.
"I have information." Disgraced Lady Gemma spoke.
"And what?" Elder Queen Zenova asked.
"It is about Vardemas." Disgraced Lady Gemma told them.
"What of Vardemas?" Elder King Cyrus asked.
"Vardemas is plotting her revenge. She came to me and offered me a deal." Disgraced Lady Gemma told them.
"Let us guess; to murder the Legendary Christiana?" Elder Queen Nadia assumed.
"Yes." Disgraced Lady Gemma confirmed. "Vardemas offered me 500,00 euros. But instead, I used it to release myself from the penitentiary."
"So, why are you telling us all of this, Gemma?" Elder King Ames asked. "Surely, you think that you will be receiving any protection from us? As a matter of fact, you are sadly mistaken if you think that telling us this information in exchange for some protection from Vardemas, knowing she will murder you for telling us this information."
"I understand that you all do not trust me because of my criminal misdeeds against Lady Christiana." Disgraced Lady Gemma Montjoy said. "I also understand that I have been disgraced and my title has been removed and I have nothing."
Elder Queen Nadia gets up and slowly walks up to Disgraced Lady Gemma.
Theseus, Lady Christiana and Handmaiden Lisabeth slowly walks over to the Elders.
"So, what do you want, Gemma?" Elder Queen Nadia asked.
"I just want protection from Vardemas. When she learns of this, she will murder me." Disgraced Gemma tells her.
"Give us a reason why we should offer you any protection, Gemma?" Elder Queen Nadia asked.
"Because I know I deserve my punishment for the criminal misdeeds against Lady Christiana. And also, I am trying to atone myself." Disgraced Gemma tells her.
Elder Queen Nadia looks at Disgraced Gemma, not trusting her and is unconvinced. Elder Queen Nadia looks at the other Elders.
"We will consider the information you have given us. Until then, you are a prisoner." Elder King Ames said.
"I understand, Your Majesty Ames." Gemma said.
"Theseus?" Elder Queen Nadia said.
Majordomo Theseus walks up next to Elder Queen Nadia. "Yes, Your Highness Nadia?"
"Take Gemma to the dungeon and have two bodyguards guard her dungeon cell." Elder Queen Nadia tells him.
"Yes, Your Highness Nadia." Theseus said and looks at Gemma. "Gemma, follow me, please?"
Theseus and Gemma walks away with two Orasanian Royal Tailcoat Guardsmen walks after them.
Elder Queen Nadia looks at the other Elders and Christy.
"I don't trust her, Mom." Christy said.
"Neither do we, Christiana." Elder Queen Nadia said to her daughter.
"So, the speculating rumors are true about Vardemas and Gemma?" Christy asked.
"Assuming." Elder King Elias said. "In the meantime, Christiana, continue your daily, we will handle this."
"Okay." Christy said.
Christy walks away with Handmaiden Lisabeth walks away, exiting the palace throne room.
