Tristan wasn't initially let into the city, he was barred at the gatehouse.

One of the guards there went to send word to Sir Noleon.

"What's worse." Noleon added. "It seems that the army that was spotted northeast of here has set up trebuchets north of the city. The rebels could start their siege at any moment."

"The rebels...do you think they were the ones that killed Perien?" Bellisa asked.

"I don't know, your highness. Though I doubt it. They are knights, not ones to send assassins." old Noleon replied.

"What will you do then?" She asked.

"Me? Well, your highness, I am but a servant of the crown. I suppose that the decision now falls to you." Noleon pointed out. He didn't have much of an opinion on Bellisa, but like Ciel, he was rather angry at the bastard High King for killing Prince Crendal.

Bellisa had already known that, but it still made her rather surprised to hear it from someone. She was technically the ruler of High Rock now that her husband was dead without any heirs. She headed into the throne room to process her new reality.

It was then that the guard arrived at the castle. He walked up to Sir Noleon. "Sir, an envoy from the rebel army has arrived bearing a message for High King Perien."

Noleon stroked his chin then sighed. "I'll leave the matter for the High Queen Dowager to decide." He headed to the throne room, where Bellisa was sitting on the throne and reported to her.

She thought for a second. "The rebels were fighting Perien, correct? Because he was said to be behind High King Gaban's death. Well let the messenger in. We'll inform him of the current developments and hopefully be able to avoid a needless battle with them."

"Hmm...well they have lost their objective so maybe they will stand down now." Noleon muttered. He nodded and went to relay the order.

Bellisa called the Castallen and had her send out as many ravens as possible to the other kingdoms reporting the death of High King Perien.

The guard returned to the gatehouse around a half-hour after his initial departure. Once back he called down to Sir Tristan. "You may enter."

The two gatehouses were opened so that the Knight could pass.

At the other side as a two guard escort to bring Sir Tristan to the castle.
