Sofia stepped away from Tyrion and reached to brush his hair out of his face. "Go quickly so Penelope will stop worrying," she said.
Sofia watched Tyrion part from her and Hazel.
"Excuse me for a moment," Sofia said, and then turned on her heel to find the maid who had approached her earlier.
Regardless of what happened and the pain she felt now, Sofia was not going to lose another person she cared for.
"Ines," Sofia called to get Ines's attention.
Ines smiled when she saw that it was Princess Sofia. "Milady, how can I serve you?"
"We will tend to my mother from here. You should gather your things and leave quietly. Be silent on your way out," Sofia ordered Ines.
Sofia believed that Tyrion had a hand in her mother's death, but she knew both Tyrion and Tabitha's hearts. She couldn't let any harm come to Tyrion.
Ines frowned.
After Ines approached Sofia to speak about what she assumed about the prince, Ines expected Sofia to bring it up to the town guards.
