Dmitri watched how the muscles on Adrianna's face became taut with tension. He could feel her anxiety. She was quivering on the inside. Haldir was an important person for the Wizard Kingdom and she depended a lot on him for her Kingdom's safety. Dmitri puffed his cheeks and exhaled a long breath. "So what do you plan, Haldir?" he asked, holding his chin up.
Haldir looked down at his toes. "I don't know…" he said after a pause.
The royal couple didn't have the heart to dissuade him. It was his home that he wanted to return, to his people, to the place where his kind lived. He no longer had to hide his unusually handsome features, white long hair and pointy ears from anyone.
Adrianna was very anxious internally but like a Queen she was, she didn't stop him. "Let us know your final decision," she said.
"Okay," he murmured.
"What about the mission I had sent you for?" she asked with grit.
