" They couldn't have possibly escaped all together in one day" he said to himself.

" Your majesty, we found a body"  said one of the king's men

" A body?" The king asked

" We found a boy's body buried at the lake" The Soldier said

" Interesting" The king said, with that he followed them to see the dead body

" His throats were slit open" Another soldier said, he uncovered the dead body from the Cloak

" Judging from the dept of the wounds, he slit himself" The King's hand man said

"What could have triggered a dead boy to slit his own throat open?" The king asked in curiosity 

" His death must have something to do with what happened last night" The king's hand man said

" If we can find out why he is dead, we might get a hint to our answers" The king said

" I know just the right person, I will invite her to the palace if you will allow me your majesty" The king's hand man said.

" As long as she will bring the truth to us, you have my order to bring him to the palace " The king said to him
