Fool's Errand

In the final moments of The Gypsy King, a truth was revealed to Persephone and Azrielone that could change everything forever. For her. For him. For them. For the entire kingdom. But trapped in a windowless castle chamber with soldiers battering at the door, it seems impossible to believe that they'll even survive. Indeed, they are a heartbeat from death when Azriel boldly bargains with the Regent Mordecai: release them and they will seek out the mythical healing Pool of Genezing. Mordecai agrees but warns that if they do not return with proof that the pool exists, he'll make those dearest to them sufferand he'll start with King Finnius.
