It Was Jenna Summers

"Huh? What are you guys doing?" Henry Xiao looked completely baffled.

"Fourth Highness, your mission is complete. There's nothing else for you to do here," Jason Xiao said with a smile.

"What mission? Why did you lock Lucia Lu in a cage? We're supposed to hurry and treat Ryan!"

"Ryan's fine! He just triggered a talisman. Divine Lord Tanya already called a Rune Master and got it out!" Prince Asher Xiao said.

"Then... why are you locking up Lucia Lu?" Henry Xiao was totally lost.

"You'll find out soon enough! Silly little brother! Let's go!" Prince Asher Xiao clapped him on the shoulder and turned to leave.

Henry Xiao's eyes darted anxiously, glancing back at Lucia Lu again and again.

......

The cell blocks all outside communication.

Lucia Lu watched the sea draw closer, gripped the Heartscale at her chest, and started tapping out words on it with her Divine Power, bit by bit.

Inside the Clarity Charm, the scene is of Lucia Lu and the Celestial Emperor in Coffin Valley.

You see the Celestial Emperor standing close to the edge of the well.

Lucia stands further away.

Then Lucia starts walking slowly toward the Emperor.

She even says something to him.

But the recording is shot from a distance, so you can't hear what they're saying.

She stops about three or four feet behind him.

Later, the coffin starts to sink.

Lucia looks up at the coffin, seems to say something else to the Emperor, but the angle only shows their backs, so you can't see their faces or read their lips.

Then Lucia reaches out with both hands and pushes the Emperor down into the well.

That's the whole Clarity Charm recording.

"Everyone saw that, right?" The Empress looks furious. "The facts are nothing like what she said! His Majesty was clearly pushed into the well by her! Lucia killed the Celestial Emperor!"

Quentin and Soren exchange a look, both frowning deeply.

"Where did this Clarity Charm come from?" Ethan asks.

"From Jenna," the Empress replies.

Jenna steps forward and says, "I get up early every morning to decoct medicine for Second Prince Victor. That day was no exception. I saw light coming from Coffin Valley, so I teleported over for a peek and saw one of the Celestial Coffins rising! It was honestly a miracle! I couldn't help but take out a Clarity Charm and record it. Figured I'd show it off later for fun! Who knew I'd end up capturing Lucia plotting to hurt the Emperor!"

Ethan clenches his fists, thinks for a moment, then says, "Lucia already told us everything that happened. She said she was afraid the coffin would fall and crush His Majesty, so she tried to pull him back. But then, an irresistible suction appeared in the well and dragged them both in." Ethan says, "That explanation fits what we see here!"

Soren nods, "The timing of this Clarity Charm is just a little too perfect. What about the rest? Why does it cut off right there?"
