Book 7: Chapter Ep
In Willeron Palace in the Kingdom of Natra…
“Aghhhhh, Eliseeeeee…”
…Falanya Elk Arbalest was lying across a desk, longing for the Flahm baby back in the Empire.
“I thought you’d never come home,” Nanaki grumbled, recalling the scene.
As they’d prepared to return to Natra, Falanya had refused to stop attending to Elise and let her go. It was like she was bidding farewell to her own life. In the end, Nanaki had to practically drag her back.
“But Elise was so cute! You understand, don’t you, Nanaki?!”
“We have officers with children in Natra, too. I’m sure they’ll let you play with them.”
“It’s different! I’m sure they’re adorable, but I want to see Elise!” Falanya kicked her feet up, still face-planted on the desk.
Nanaki gave up on any further attempt at constructive conversation. “Anyway, you have a meeting soon.”
