Her Graceful War Song novel Chapter 885

For a moment, no one spoke.

Though it had been anticipated that the new king of Westhaven would inevitably investigate the Fawnrun City incident upon his ascension, no one had expected Edmund to act so quickly. He had barely settled into the throne, which was still warm from his predecessor, yet had already begun the investigation, going so far as to imprison Liam immediately.

Liam had only just survived an assassination attempt, and his body had not fully healed. Now, with him thrown into the dungeon, no one knew if he could endure the harsh conditions.

Rafael finally broke the long silence, saying, "The second thing he will do as king is likely to directly confront Starhaven and hold us accountable for what happened in Fawnrun City."

"That's without a doubt," Jacob responded.

Carissa turned to Rafael, concern in her eyes. "Have Scott and Wilfred managed to infiltrate Westhaven yet?"

Those two members of the Septimus Tetra reconnaissance team were from Stonebrook District and had planned to return to their hometown after receiving their rewards. However, they had chosen to continue serving the court. After visiting their families, they immediately headed to Westhaven.

"They've already settled into the capital," Rafael confirmed.

"Are there any others with them?" Carissa pressed.

"There are 13 others. General Wallace has already sent some people in as well. Altogether, there are about 40 to 50 people."

Wallace Sullivan was Dominic's eighth son, who had been adopted. He had always been with his father at Victory Pass. Now, other than Wallance, Dominic only had Wyatt, who was his third son who had lost an arm, as well as a nephew, Shane, whom everyone viewed as his sixth son.

Shane's father was Dominic's half-brother, the governor of Greenvale City. He had been in office for ten years and had never returned to the capital. His entire family had moved there instead.

Thus, aside from the Sinclair family and Heather, there were no other relatives of the Sullivan family left in the capital.
