Meanwhile, in Mirabella...
After receiving Minos' call to go to the Dry City, Linette and Jade promptly guaranteed their husband that this would probably be no bad thing.
At first, he was concerned about this as even considering Minos' relatively respectful actions over the past four years, that was no guarantee trouble would not come in the future. King Carline would not forget the terrible things the ruler of the Black Plain did in the past!
But being assured by his women, he felt that perhaps there was not so much danger and sighed.
Unfortunately, those two could hardly hide their excitement at being able to meet Minos again after more than four years without seeing each other. And King Carline could not help but notice the redness in their cheeks.
He clenched his fists, considering what such a sign meant. 'They are scared internally but still calm me with their words. I truly don't deserve women this good!'
