Silence remained inside Simon's room after he finished reading the letter.
The alarm bells outside had stopped, but the noise in the streets had not. Demons were still discussing the destroyed district, while guards continued moving through Velmora in large groups.
Inside the room, however, nobody paid attention to them.
Sonya stared at the Murmur Bone resting beside the command seal.
"So..." She slowly straightened. "What do we do?"
She leaned toward the letter with both hands resting on the table. The interest in her pale eyes remained, but the earlier amusement had disappeared.
Akaza stood beside her with his arms folded and his eyes were on the letter.
"We should tell Korran about the plans of the rebels. But not everything."
Sonya turned toward him with raised brows.
"Why tell him anything?"
