Rezeph turned his head towards Lucian.
''Your Majesty,'' Luciana stepped forward before the King had a chance to speak to Lucian, ''I'd like to go with Esme.''
Lucian narrowed his eyes at his sister, ''It's not a decision for you to make,'' Chances like this were rare and while there were risks, he did not mind.
Luciana avoided his gaze, ''My brother and Esme are not close so they won't be able to communicate if the other person was heaving their last breath. And I am more powerful than my brother, hence more suitable to accompany Esme on this journey.''
Lucian gritted his teeth. She always had to provoke him like this.
''Lady Norwell, it is then,'' Rezeph turned to look at Esme, ''Since you are leaving tonight through the portal, you should get started with the preparations. You might have to live there for three days.''
There was a portal nearby? Everyone except Luciana was stunned.
Esme, however, did not bother with it.
