?Chapter 418: Chapter 422 What is Seen in the Darkness Chapter 418: Chapter 422 What is Seen in the Darkness “How did the key end up in the hands of the first Governor?”

This was the question that occupied Agatha’s mind the most at the moment—because no matter which historical record one referred to, whether it was from the perspective of the Queen’s supporters or from the current City-State authorities, there was one consistent point regarding the description of the “rebellion” or “revolt” that occurred half a century ago: there was an irreconcilable conflict between the Frost Queen and the rebel forces.

The two were enemies, without any possibility of understanding or cooperation, let alone any “legacy” relationship—so why would the key of Queen Lei Nora end up in the hands of the City-State’s Governor? And why did Winston refer to it as a “curse” and a “gift”?

Thinking rapidly, Agatha lowered her head, eyeing Winston’s eyes: “There is another truth to the rebellion—not that the Frost Queen and the rebel forces had made some agreement…”

“It’s not as dramatic as that, Gatekeeper, although it does sound like a good story—mad rulers of the City-State sympathizing with the leaders of the righteous forces, orchestrating a great uprising capable of ending the chaos of the former dynasty to pass on power and responsibility. Playwrights and novelists would like this theme, but unfortunately, true history has no such sentiment.

“The great uprising was inevitable; the rift between the mad queen and the Frost citizens was beyond repair. She had been great once, but her failure in the Deep Abyss Project had pushed the City-State to the brink of collapse. The first Governor’s rebellion against the Queen was for the survival of more people, and there was no room for peaceful dialogue between them from the start.

“But there is one thing you’re not wrong about—the Queen and the rebel forces did indeed have a certain ‘understanding.’ The Queen knew her overthrow was inevitable, and the rebels also knew that the Queen’s madness wasn’t just ‘insanity.’ She must have had many secrets.

“So, on the night before the execution, the leader of the rebels, who was the first Governor, sought out the imprisoned Queen; he wanted to understand what secrets she was hiding.
