We have had many owls and messages of concern since yesterday afternoon and while we took a moment of silence to deal with the events that took place yesterday, we can no longer remain quiet.
Yesterday afternoon at just a little past noon, an intruder made it onto the grounds of the palace and as myself and my family were sitting down to enjoy lunch together, an attempt was made on Prince Regulus' life. Thankfully, the ill fated attempt did not succeed and Prince Regulus is fine and quite well thanks in a very large part to the quick actions of the guard. It is unfortunate though that this incident cost one person their life but such an ill fated decision like that of attacking our crowned prince could have ended no other way.
We placed the palace on lockdown after the incident but once the guards gave the all clear everyone was sent home for the afternoon and the few guards, one in particular who prevented an even larger tragedy from happening then just the loss of life of the would be assassin were kept in the infirmary here over night and were released this morning once the healers gave the all clear. It is because of the quick thinking of the guards and because of their even quicker reactions that no one was seriously hurt or worse. We cannot thank our guards enough for their actions and their bravery and there will never be words enough to explain what their actions and bravery mean to us.
At this time there are still many details that are either unclear or unknown to us and we ask that while the investigation continues that all questions be held until a more formal report can be made on the incident.
