The summit conference was over, and the participants had emerged from the grand hall. Some were still amidst conversation, while others began making their way towards their respective carriages. Arlan was one of the latter.
Drayce caught up to him. Though Arlan acted his usual self, not letting anyone get even a slight hint of his inner struggle, what happened this early morning was not something a proper friend would ignore.
"How are you?" Drayce asked as they walked side by side, followed by their knights.
Arlan glanced at him, raising a brow as if asking what kind of a question is this. Drayce could see he was acting nonchalant and said. "Get inside your carriage first."
The prince said nothing as he entered his carriage and Drayce went to his. Just as their carriages started moving, the King of Megaris disappeared from his ride and appeared inside Arlan's carriage. No one outside knew what was going on.
