"A couple of men? Who?"
Ovior, Zinnia, Felix and Darius went to the front gate.
They saw three men.
Their bodies were covered with black cloaks and black hoods. Their faces couldn't be seen.
The men saw them and the person in the middle demanded, "We are here to meet Veronica."
His voice had a hint of hostility.
Ovior knitted his eyebrows. "And who are you and why will we allow you to meet her?"
The man in the middle revealed his face and so did his companions.
They had light golden blonde hair, shining in the sunlight. Those tall men had unusually pointy ears.
Their skin was pale and they didn't look like ordinary people.
'They are elves!' Ovior widened his eyes in surprise.
He and the others immediately became alert.
The man in the middle said, "Veronica was supposed to meet us yesterday but she didn't.
"We thought she would come today but she didn't. We want to know if she is alive and well."
