Chapter 123

"If you are going to see the lord and his wife, I suggest that you do not as they are a private family. He will not let you in his gates and if you bother his family, he will attack. It’s rumoured that Lord Ambrose isn’t close to the king anymore so he will not care to please you," said Charlotte.
All the locals respected the family’s wishes to be private so Zayne had to do the same if he didn’t want any trouble.
"Thanks for the warning but where can I find this family?" Zayne asked, not worried about the lord.
If he could find a portrait of Lady Ambrose, it would help him know if the trip was worth it.

"It is quite the ride from here to the lord’s land. You must head north toward the mountains. You will come across plenty of farmers before you reach there. I should have a map to mark it as I am not good with directions. Excuse me for a moment. We might have a map here," Charlotte said, leaving Zayne’s side to search.
