Though the Black Emperor's cunning and the Blood Emperor's madness astonished Klein, he still had to maintain Mr. Fool's composure. He calmly finished reading the diary entry and set the page down without haste.

He made the page disappear, then smiled at the Hermit. "What do you want to know?"

Or, more precisely, what did Queen Mystic want to know?

Cattleya asked respectfully, "Honorable Mr. Fool, apart from Emperor Roselle, who else appears in this diary entry?"
