Grater eyes run through around the room the only thing that came in handy was the cup the princess Diana had used to drink the tea. Grater left the princess and gently picked up the cup without the maid noticing.
She had not argued with the maid because she did not work in prince Elliott's quarter. When the maid tried to put the princess back to bed, Grater looked at the maid and hit her at the back of her head.
It was a trick her late husband had taught her. She made sure to put enough force so that the maid would lose consciousness. Greater breath a sigh of relief when she saw the maid fall on the bed.
She immediately took hold of the princess there was no time to waste. Grater had stated too long in the quarter. So she took hold of the water jug and sprinkle some water on the princess to help her gain some consciousness.
This woke up the princess a little, as the princess was able to stand more steady.. Grater hurriedly led the princess into the prince's chamber.
There was no time to help the princess into the room. So Grater just shove the princess into the chamber, shut the door, and hurried away from there.
Afraid that her presence will be discovered and might end up getting princess Ellen in trouble Grater hurriedly escaped from the Quarter.
The man who was waiting for the maid to signaled him could not find her even after an hour of waiting. He wanted to just leave but then he had a rethink and decided to check on what was going on in the princess chamber.
When he got into the room he found a figure sleeping on the bed. The oil lamp was burning lightly so he could not see the face of the person on the bed. Without a second thought, the man decided to do the job he was brought there for.

This was the princess chamber, the maid already should it to him. So he concluded that the figure on the bed was the princess.
The maid woke up by the sudden attack of the man. As instructed the man was not gentle at all. The man struggled to push the man away but he was stronger than her so she half heartily gave in. It did not matter anyway, she could not overpower him.
The maid thought she would give the man a piece of her mind the next morning. Who knew the prince will decide to visit his wife's chamber that night.
The maid had planned to let the prince find out about what happened the next morning. If only she had not been the one in bed that night, the plan would have been more successful.
There was nothing the princess would ever have said to make the man listen to her. This made the maid wondered who had come to the princess's rescue.
"I will ask you this question one more time? Who sent you,?" prince Elliott asked seeing the guilty look on the maid's face.
"Lady Catherine," the maid confess everything that had happened till the prince walked into the room. Prince Elliott balled his fist. He was obviously very annoyed to hear this. He had suspected that lady Catherine would take her revenge but he never thought she would go this low.
"Take her away," prince Elliott instructed the guard. He could not let this pass. He would deal with lady Catherine himself. But that had to be later. The most important question in his head was "where is my wife?" prince Elliott asked.
From the maid's narration. Someone must have assisted her to his chamber, so he decided to start his search there. When he got to the room he met his wife sleep and he breathe in relief.

Lady Catherine's plans had only failed because someone help his wife. Who could this be? Prince Elliott could not think of anyone that will help his wife. His wife had no friends and whoever did this must have found out about the plan.
Which means the person must have some high standing in the palace. Prince Elliott continues to think about all the possibilities till he fell asleep but he could not think of anyone so nice.
The next day, Princess Diana woke up before the prince. She was a bit confused as to why she was in her husband's chamber. The last she remembered was laying on her bed.
"good morning your highness," Princess Diana said when she saw the prince open his eyes. Princ Elliott nodded his head and sat down.
"Do you remember who got you here last night?" prince Elliott asked. There was no such thing as free lunch. This was what prince Elliott concluded when he went to bed the previous night.
He needed to find out who helped his wife and find out what the person wanted in return. Princess Diana was shocked by his question at first but gradually she remembered a stranger telling her not to sleep in her room.
She opened her mouth and explained what she remembered then she suddenly paused when the image of the woman that saved her flash in her mind. It was only yesterday that she saw the maid.
That dress was the same dress princess Ellen's maid had on when they had lunch with the Queen. 'could it be..' princess Diana shook her head. But as she juggle her memories she was more and more certain that the maid was indeed from princess Ellen.
It could not have been a coincidence. Besides she had seen a part of her face when the latter tried to help her up her feet.
"I think it is a maid from the crown prince Quarter," princess Diana honestly shared her view with the prince.
"Why do you think so?" prince Elliott asked. If there was someone he wanted to owe nothing, it was his first brother.
"I saw a bit of the maid's face. Her dress and her face are similar to princess Ellen's personal maid. She had worn that dress when she followed the princess to have lunch with the Queen yesterday," princess Diana explained.
Prince Elliott closed his mouth when he heard his wife's words. " I will investigate and let you know, " prince Elliott said. He then explained what had happened last night.
Princess Diana felt her heartbeat increased as she listened to the prince. She wondered what would have become of her if someone did not come to save her.
" Do you really think my brother will want to save you?" prince Elliott asked. He still doubted that the person who got into his quarter the previous night was from the crown prince Quarter.
"No, his wife," princess Diana answered in confidence. She had already come to this conclusion.
"Why are you so confident?" prince Elliott raised his brows.
"Because an enemy of my enemy is my friend," Princess Diana said.

Glyphnax had finally reached his ultimate goal, they had emancipated themselves from their infernal patron after centuries of servitude. The world was theirs for the taking and power akin to a god was within their grasp. And then a bunch of uppity adventurers ruined everything. One botched teleport spell later and suddenly Glyphnax, High Warlock of the 7th circle and master diabolist was floating in an endless cold void. It took them all their might to ensure that they did not die in that cold and airless space before they were knocked unconscious from the strain. Waking up from that was no blessing either as They suddenly where in a world of science and space travel. Magic has long since been disproven as a force in that universe and Glyphnax near god-level powers have been reduced to a mere shade of what they were before. Strange blue boxes with arbitrary numbers and statistics fill up his vision and his stranded on a strange ship manned by Humans and other weirder creatures. They now have to deal with the dangers of space, megalomaniacal courier corporations, ancient cyborg hordes and an overly concerned AI with abandonment issues.
