ANNA:
I notice the door to the hall open, I see the royal family gathered, they all look at us with a mocking smile on their faces, I want to run out, turn back and take refuge in the room. My hands are sweaty, my face is burning red hot, I try not to look at them, keep my eyes on the floor as Marcia told me to, I don't understand why Sigrid has brought me with them, does she want to humiliate me? To show me as her trophy that she uses and still allows me to live? I wait for him to sit down so I can stand behind him, but that doesn't happen, Sigrid takes my arm and sits me on one of the chairs next to her father, then he stands to the right of Eirik, as befits the eldest son, next to me is Marcus, in front is Bjorn, next to him is Esben and at the other end, Ivana, in front of her Mate,
