two hours later, Lucy wakes up and takes a bath. "Third Miss is called for to witness," A maid says. Lucy shrugs, leaning her head on Mom's shoulder. She is carried outside and stands in a crowd. Lucy blinks seeing her sisters, and brother there. Many servants and a crowd of beauties dressed in silk stood around waiting. Must be Father's concubines. d.a.m.n, that's an army! A lady Lucy recognizes from the Rimes Manor stands by the bound maids. She was holding a small gem.
"Witness" Father says, this one word, his glare sweeping across the crowd. The lady steps forward, and the gem she held glows a soft white. Lucy's eyes widen. It's pure energy! My pure energy! She is using my pure energy! "I fed the Third Miss Frost Poison." "I fed the Third Miss Gust Poison." "I fed the Third Miss Royal Foxglove poison" Those words, forced by the small gem. How is that gem doing that? What is that gem? While Lucy stares intently at the small gem, the other two maids beg for forgiveness for not finding the traitors.
"The two were neglectful of the Third Miss' health shall be whipped 20 times, and sold. The three traitors are shall greet Hades" Carlos announces. Without another word, a guard pulls his sword and cut off Liz's arm. Slice, by slice Liz was cut apart, her heart falling last. Bin screams, struggling, but her blood hits the dirt, making a gross puddle. Tammy was last. She was quiet as she died. Lucy watches, slightly queasy.
Is it really necessary for me to see this, Father? This is really gross! Still, Lucy's option didn't matter. The entire Jing palace watched the last two maids whipped, and dragged away. Once they were gone, Lucy's attention switches back to the small gem in that woman's hands. "Papa" Lucy shouts, getting his attention. He walks over, the lady following. "Hold me" Lucy reaches for him, once he was closer. "h.e.l.lo, little thing. Do you feel better?" Father asks. Lucy points to the gem, that the woman held. "What?" Lucy asks, "A truth crystal. It makes people tell the truth." Father answers.
Lucy's eyes widen. Oh, I need that! "Want" Lucy demands. Father chuckles. "It can only be used by someone of the Light Affinity. Until you have your Affinity Awakening, you won't be able to use any element" Father explains. "Besides, you have tested as Air affinity." Oh, then I definitely have to reveal my pure energy. No, Light affinity, so I can get a Truth crystal. Lucy yawns, tired. "Take the Third Miss back to rest" Father orders.
Lucy snuggles into her Mom's arms and goes to nap while a storm of blood is created across several influential households. Imperial Lord Sean's Manor was breached, and every living thing was murdered, down to the dogs, and kittens. Later, Imperial guards find Imperial Lord Sean in bed with his concubine, his throat cut.
Chief Wilson's manor burns down with no survivors. Various n.o.ble houses connected to Imperial Lord Sean or Minster Gong disappear completely. Even those serving off at the border, or in other providences die that night.
Minster Gong lives but is struck by mysterious bandits wearing masks. His treasury looted, his guards, servants, his concubines, and all his heirs murdered. He is left with infant daughters, a shrill wife he hates, and an empty treasury. And the reason for this minor bloodbath slept peacefully, dreaming of dancing in a field of flowers on earth.
