"I… don't really know what else to say, just like you, I was also a victim. I once more apologize, for not having the power nor the insight to prepare for such a threat… You have all the right to hate me, even more to want me out of the throne. Let me tell you that Rose, the legitimate heir of the throne will soon become the Queen, as her training will be completed by the end of this year."
The people listened to Sapphire in silence, most looked tired and sleepy, but as they ate, the energy came back to them and they were able to slightly smile, relieved the nightmare was over.
"Queen Sapphire…"
"Well, we've already faced some terrible things before…"
"At least, unlike before, this problem was solver quicker…"
"In only a week…"
"Y-Yeah… but the torture… it was painful."
"At least they had the decency of not using children for this but… what were those soldiers even doing?"
"Please Lady Sapphire, don't worry!"
