As you and Laurente arrive at the entrance to the queen's private chambers, you hear muffled voices coming from within. Laurente gestures for you to stay back as he cautiously pushes open the heavy door. Inside, you see Queen Philippa engaged in a heated discussion with her advisor, a tall and imposing man named Erard. Their words are hushed but intense, and it is clear that something of great importance is being discussed. Laurente motions for you to remain hidden in the shadows, unsure of whether to intervene or listen further.
