"What is Salazar doing here?" Riali exclaimed in shock as he stood up. This wasn't a good time for him to come since Varant couldn't meet him. He couldn't help but wonder what Salazar wanted.
"Alright, bring him in. I'll talk to him," he told the man, sending him away.
As the man left, Riali picked up the phone and called Rowen.
"Rowen, come to Varant's office fast. Salazar Lucia is here, and I need you to be here when I meet him. And no, don't tell Varant about this. He needs to recover in peace," he told Rowen over the phone before he disconnected the call.
Within a few moments, Rowen arrived, not even bothering to knock as he stepped into the office.
"Why is Salazar here?" He asked Riali as soon as he stepped inside. "Did something happen?"
"How should I know? I'll ask him when he comes. Sit for now," he told Rowen, who took a chair and sat beside Riali.
Knock! Knock!
"Come on in."
