After a few minutes of contemplation, Eleanor finalized the outline of her next move. However, a pressing concern continued to linger in the back of her mind… the assassin team. There was a possibility that they might come for her today.
After thinking it through once more, she raised her voice slightly, "I need Sebastian here."
She didn't need to yell. She knew at least one member of her Shadow Guard was always stationed nearby, watching her silently from the shadows.
Sure enough, only a few seconds passed before Sebastian materialized in front of her like a ghost stepping through reality.
"Ma'am," he said, bowing his head respectfully.
"Another group of assassins has taken the job the previous party failed to complete," Eleanor said. "I suspect they might strike tonight. I want everyone around me monitored… closely."
Sebastian nodded but remained silent as she continued.
