Edgar drank his tea and ate the snacks provided just to be polite. They didn't talk much after that. Once he was done, the man decided to take his leave.
"Your Majesty, thank you for your hospitality. I really need to go back to my country," Edgar rose from his seat and bowed down to Maxim. Then he turned to Emmelyn, showing a really sad face. "Your Grace... please take care of yourself. I really hope we can see each other again."
Emmelyn smiled and nodded. "Thank you, Lord Edgar. Please be careful on the road. May the road you travel is smooth and the sun keeps shining on your back."
Edgar felt touched and he nodded back. He couldn't really say anything now. Emmelyn was adamant about not wanting to go back to Draec with him. He couldn't force her.
"Thank you." Finally, that was all he could utter. The man sighed and turned around to leave the lounge. Horatio showed him the way out and took him to meet his men who were waiting outside the main palace.
