Inside an ordinary tavern at the border of a certain human kingdom, a young blond man in his early twenties sat down in exhaustion. He was eye-catching, not only because he was handsome and tall and obviously of high birth, but also because he was accompanied by a group of cloaked men with swords strapped in their waists. There were about twenty of them, and their group alone took over four tables.
All of them looked travel-worn and came to the tavern to relax for the night.
As the server brought food and drinks for them, the disappointed-looking young man picked up the beer tankard while his two companions on the table could only sigh to see him like that.
The young man was the third prince of the Valor Royal Family and one of Ember's older brothers, Prince Rhian Valor.
