Chapter 683
There wasn’t much rest to be had that night. After finding Falk and filling him in on exactly what happened and spending what felt like far too many hours going over it with some embassy employees who didn’t wake up that day expecting to have to deal with an incident involving the daughter of their nation’s queen, the three of them were only able to get a couple of hours of sleep before getting up and heading out.
There’d been a serious conversation on if they should go at all but ultimately they’d decided to stick to the original plan. As unfortunate as that turn of events was, there was no reason to stop what they were doing when as far as they were concerned, none of them were in the wrong. If it caused issues down the line then they’d deal with it but for the time being, they walked through the streets to get where they needed to be.
“So just try and keep on good behaviour,” Falk told them while looking at his apprentice in particular. “I’m not ‘expectin’ any issues but this isn’t a crowd you want making enemies outa.”
“I’m literally always on my best behaviour,” He said in his defense while Thera spoke up too.
“And even if that’s completely untrue, both soul mages should be there so I’m sure they’ll help out if he does anything wrong.”
“Thera, please, I need you on my side when I’m being slandered.”
“It was only a couple days ago I watched you attack Eneth’s church.”
“Well first off, they deserved it. Secondly, I challenged them to a fight, it was their choice to accept.”
“So if they’d said no you would have just left?”
