Chapter 11: Diona’s Undermining

Chapter 11
"Thank you, Diona. The pleasure is all mine and yes I am from Meribia, anything wrong with that?" Era responded calmly but everyone could tell the deep meaning behind those words.
It just showed that she wasn’t a pushover but who were they to judge just like that without knowing the entirety of the matter?
"Ah! There is nothing wrong. I was just curious about some things that’s all."
"And what things if I may ask?"
"Just how small it was and how you must feel so lucky to have been favoured by King Vidor here."
Era smiled upon hearing her choice of words. It was obvious she was there to find trouble.
’So this is the lady troubler of the palace. Thank you for saving me the stress of searching you out. You just made things easier.’ Era said within her. Her smile still shone brightly as she dropped the cutlery in her hands and picked up her glass of wine to drink from it.
Everyone’s gaze remained fixated on her, watching and waiting to see if she got guts and how far it could carry her.
"Indeed my kingdom is small but we share a might like none other. We have what other kingdoms failed to have."
Saying that had not only piqued the interest of those seated there but of her husband as well.
