Delivery/Discourse.

Delia, Selena and the doppelganger arrived back at the palace and went straight to Arerto's room and started on the plan. Delia took a potion supplied by Mira and headed to the palace kitchen. This kitchen provided the food for the palace guard and when the cook was distracted she poured the potion inside the cooking pot. The potion would make the palace guard compliant to the doppelganger and no one else and while Delia was returning Selena was forging a special proclamation that the doppelganger would read out in the throne room. When Delia returned they dressed the doppelganger in a fine dress and placed the state crown on her head. Then they were ready to head down to the throne room where all the queen's advisors had been told to assemble for a special announcement. Upon her arrival, the doors were closed and the doppelganger made her way to the throne along with Delia and Selena who stood behind her.

Lady DeWinter had pushed the horse and they arrived at the small inlet where there was a boat waiting with two women also like Mira at casts from Freeconia. They helped Mira uncover the now semi-conscious Arerto and proceeded to load her bound body into the boat followed by the two women. They started to row the boat through the mist towards the island and a waiting Mira. Lady DeWinter left the wagon behind changing back into regal clothes and found her mount and headed back to the capital. The boat eased through the water and mist until they came to the run-down pier and tied up the boat to one of the decayed bollards. They lifted Arerto out of the boat and carried her towards the wanting Mira who clapped her hands on seeing her nemesis. She pointed to the cross and Arerto was unchained then secured to the cross and Mira slapped her until she was awake. "Well your majesty we are going to have a lot of fun but before that witness the beginning of the end of your realm."

With that she waved her hand over the cauldron and Arerto could see the Freeconian throne room and what looked like herself standing before her advisors. Mira closed her eyes and let her spirit free which crossed the many miles to the Freeconian capital until she entered the doppelganger's body and she took out the parchment. "I Queen Arerto by the powers divined to me by my mother declare that amongst us we have traitors and they will be arrested. The following are deemed enemies of the state Lady Katarina, Lady Briella, Lady Corina and General Fassiona and are to be immediately arrested" The doppelganger nodded and the palace guard now under her complete control arrested the four women. They were stripped and chained and led away to the dungeon and Mira left the body. Arerto had seen what happened and tears had fallen down her face. These four women had been her strongest allies at court and now they would believe she had betrayed them.
