Two days ago;
The pavilion elders and the clan leaders are gathered in the throne hall upon being summoned by Qridus Garcia for an important announcement.
Amid everyone's curious gazes, Qridus stood up from the throne and said, "I'm leaving the clan for a few days. It might take one day to even a month. So, until I return, I leave the safety of the clan village in your hands."
Some of the clan leaders glanced at each other, thinking that it might be the right time to formulate a plan for the clan to take over, while the others were puzzled to hear the clan head is going somewhere.
After all, the last time he stepped outside of the clan is more than a hundred years ago and that too, only to attend the funeral of the royal ancestor of Freyles.
