Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects! Chapter 123.2: The Moonlight Queen Under the Table (2)

Before long, Regent Hamilton understood why this prince was so calm.

Rayne said, "Hamilton, the regent of Leta. Was it your idea to lock me here?"

The regent said coldly, "I don't have that much power. This is a joint decision of the palace, Rayne Haines. Your crimes in Leta were enough to have you sent to feed the dragons. You should be grateful that we're not killing you right now."
