I noticed this place was lonesome. The portrait that I saw earlier in the grand hallway has gotten me a little nervous.. I haven't seen Lea or Max since dinner(I pretended to sleep, so Max didn't feel obligated to stay around) and with all that's happened.. It's kinda hard not to think of the worst-case scenario.

I decided to go back to the paintings. The girl who eerily looked like me seemed to have changed throughout each portrait. She never looked evil, in fact all the men around seemingly enjoyed being around her.

The only questionable person seemed to be a man, who looked alot like Percy. He was always staring at these girls in each painting. Almost like the girl was prey to him. An item only he could have.

I shake off the jittery feeling when all of a sudden a loud bang came from outside of the hallway. I grab the dagger I brought with me from my room and head over to where the noise was coming from.

Quietly I approached the throneroom, only to to see it was Max. He was walking away from who I assumed to be Lea, her head sunk to her hands as I heard quiet sobs come from her.

Maybe they didn't want to accompany me, I mean I did take Lea away from all of her friends and family. I shouldn’t have taken her from her family. Yet its too late, if she goes back now she will get executed.

I decide to go back to my room. Tomorrow was a big day.. hopefully nothing eventful will happen.
