Her Graceful War Song novel Chapter 1100

Carissa quickly sorted through the information in her mind. Her thoughts were in chaos, but she forced herself to stay calm and asked, "Is it just Claire chasing after her?"

"Iris is with her. But if Prince Yuvan really took Ms. Spencer, he would have many skilled people with him. They wouldn't be able to match him. That's why I came back to get help, but we still don't know for sure if Ms. Spencer was taken," Mabel replied.

Carissa knew there was no time to waste. Lightning should be able to catch up. If Violet was still in the capital, she would probably be safe—the danger would be if Yuvan had taken her.

She turned to Lillian. "Go back and tell Deputy Commander Brown to search the city. Then, go to Hell Monarch Estate and find Mr. Mullen. Have him gather people and follow me. I'll leave markers along the way."

With that, Carissa snapped her whip and galloped off.

Claire had always been with Violet, but now Violet had disappeared right before her eyes. This was no ordinary situation, and Carissa couldn't afford to take it lightly. She had to catch up with Yuvan.

Lillian rode back to the capital. The Capital Guard and Garrison Unit were already searching. Even Alistair had sent some people from the Royal Guard. Kevin had even called on some people from the Nightsteel Guard to help. Violet was their mentor, and with her missing, they were all worried.

The Capital Guard didn't have the authority to seal the city gates, so Michael went straight to the Supreme Court to find Rafael, who was the last to hear about the situation. When he learned that Carissa was chasing Yuvan alone, he frowned.

"She went alone?"

"Yes, Your Highness," Michael replied. "The urgent matter now is to seal the gates, to prevent Sage Violet from being taken by Prince Yuvan or hidden somewhere. He might try to slip out of the city during the confusion while we're searching."

Rafael frowned with concern. It was dangerous for Carissa to go alone.

Rafael first ordered the gates to be locked under the pretense of hunting down criminals. People were still allowed to enter, but those leaving the city had to be thoroughly checked, whether they were nobles, merchants, or commoners.

…

Carissa rode furiously, and Lightning seemed to understand her urgency. Its hooves barely touched the ground, running like it was flying.

The sky darkened, and she knew the danger was closing in. But her bigger fear was arriving too late—Violet would be in danger.

Violet, the one who, no matter what happened, would rush to Carissa's side without a second thought at the sound of her voice.

Carissa couldn't let anything happen to Violet. She would risk her life to make sure Violet stayed safe.
