Iona and Rolfe went to meet Kaizan and Olivia. Their daughter continued to be at Haldir's place, threatening them that she would not leave for the next two days even if they kill her. When Iona had come to collect her, she had refused to come because Ruvyn was not allowing her to go. Iona looked at Inyanga with a raised eyebrow. Inyanga threw her hands up.
"Don't give me those looks, Iona," she said in an exasperated voice. "There is something very wrong between those two," she pointed at Lena and Ruvyn, who were standing in a small pond on the east of the castle and trying to catch fish by hand. "But I am really concerned about Nikolai because look what they make out of him?" Iona found Nikolai catching the fish that they managed to find and throw at him. He had been crying all the time because he feels like he was left out."
Iona looked warily at her daughter and said, "Mother is going to be angry about this. I really want her to meet her grandparents."
