"Leilani's missing?"
Owen hesitated, then corrected.
"Not just Leilani, Princess. Her brother, Leif, as well. They disappeared during the Spring Festival in the Capital. Miss Kendall wrote that they vanished in the crowd and haven't been seen since."
Of course Aristia knew all that based on the letter's content.
It... just seemed a bit hard to fathom that Leilani... that Leilani that she knew, was missing.
Even Millie turned away from the window sill where she stood looking out of the window and towards her.
[It happened on the day of the Spring festival. That's a week from now. The longer someone's gone, the harder it is to find them.] Her heart sunk.
The distance between the Capital and the east was fairly moderate.
In a medieval kingdom with carriages, horses, and occasional rest stops, travel depended on roads and weather.
During the summer with clear roads, it would take bout four to five days by carriage.
