i'm confused. Please send help.

My guess:
She needs an opportunity to escape.

Currently: they are heading to the capital, to use the royalties ability + teleporter.
The captors goal is to kill darius and steal "her majesty" for the sake of her blessed lineage/power to prevent disasters.

I believe the queen's plan is to:
a) pretend she does not expect teleportation (she just pretended she was unaware of the guy being royalty)

b) Act as if she thought they were going to the capital, not for the sake of teleportation, but instead-

c) She pretends the enemy soldiors are going to the capital to steal the 'gem' (which does not exist)

I am entirely guessing, she is going to convince them that the holy power lies not in her, but instead in a non-existent gem.

This will allow her to redirect them from a planned route to the teleportation, to a goose chase wherever she 'claims' the gem is.

Ofc this is entirely speculation, and it could differ a lot?

thankyou(づ￣ ³￣)づ
