Chapter 323: Who laid eggs?
For a moment, Sigrid had no words after reading the letter. But, she did have thoughts--and they were many. The
first one being that her mother was possibly insane. Where was she planning to send the letter to? Did she have
the address of the fairy godmother council? And why was she criticizing their work? For a human she had many
opinions about something that was none of her concern.
Cosmos appeared at her window, bellowing his heart out with a drinking flask in hand.
"I love your mother, she is one of the most honest humans | have ever met. Imagine complaining on behalf of
the rats and lizard." He touched his chest, threw his head back and laughed again, very loudly.
"Who gave you the letter?" Sigrid turned her entire body around to ask her maid the question.
Lama glanced at the letter in Sigrid’s hands once as she answered, "It was Lord Paxton your highness, your
father, not your brother. He said that the Lady gave it to him to send out but he has no idea where to send it so
he is sending it to you. To quote him directly, he said, it was your cockamamie story so you deal with it."
Cosmos waved his hand and blocked their voices from the ears of the maids.
"I will deal with it." He stretched his hand out. "But you should pay for the delivery fee. And when she does get a
response, you will still have to pay to receive it. The price is not so expensive, just fifteen gold coins." He raised
his eyebrows. "What will it be?"
"Fifteen gold!" She whined like a dog.
Cosmos nodded.
"Where are you sending it? Is there an actual universe with fairy godmothers?"
Cosmos gestured for her to hand over the letter. "It is not for you to know. Even if | say yes, it is not as if you will

Also, why would the dwarfs keep a dead snow white in a glass coffin? When someone dies, you bury them, you
don’t put them on display like an art piece in a museum."
"Oh great, you sound just like my mother now." Sigrid moaned tiredly. "I went to bed with a headache yesterday

waste of resources."
"Ah! so you do think along the slines as your mother when it comes to the ridiculousness of these stories?"
His eyes lit up.
He looked greedy to dive into the very subject that Sigrid was eager to avoid. And avoid it she did, for she stood
up and declared that it was tto go downstairs for breakfast.
Cosmos removed the sound barrier. "I still have questions you know, many questions?"
"Why don’t you givea copy of the storybooks directly from you know where." She didn’t want to mention the
bank or other worlds in front of the maids. "I will give the books to the lord mage and he will make thousands of
duplicates. After my mother has finished reading each book | am sure that she will be distressed enough to hold
an entire book club meeting which you can attend and share your thoughts."
He grunted and jumped out of the window.
On the way down the stairs, a horrified scream made Sigrid and her maids pause. They turned their heads in the
direction of the noise, which was the bedroom of Deanne and Nathan.
Without wasting a second, Sigrid run to the bedroom. Many other footsteps were heard coming up behind her so
when she arrived there, she was not alone for long. She pushed her way inside, calling her brother's nand
when she found him, he was holding his wife's shoulders and looking at their bed. There, nestled in the sheets
were six perfectly round, glistening, extra large peacock eggs.
Sigrid blinked. Once. Twice. Thrice. Then a fourth time, before looking back at Deanne and Nathan.
"| take it that these are not yours." She said.
"Better not be." Deanne replied in a raised voice. "I am not a bird, | cannot give birth to eggs."
Elowin and John pushed into the room. Lady Iryne shoved them to the side and she took a closer look at the
eggs. "Peacock eggs," She muttered in a confused voice.
"Did you do this Nathaniel?" Elowin asked.
Nathaniel frowned. "Are you bloody mad? Why would | lay eggs? | am man for goodness sake!"
"With magic..." Elowin said in a suggestive voice.
Deanne hissed at him. "Not even with magic."
