The news of Prince Theron waking up reached the King's and the Queen's ears first thing in the morning. They could not wait to see their son, and after having their meal together, they shared a carriage to head straight towards the Crown Prince's residence.
When they arrived, King Esteban and Queen Theodora were led towards the drawing-room instead of the prince's bedchamber, much to their surprise. The aide informed them that the Crown Prince was strong enough to move around, and was just about to finish his morning meal. It did not even take five minutes before Prince Theron appeared in front of his parents, looking as strong and healthy as ever, as if he never suffered an injury in the first place.
He bowed before them. "Good morning, Father. Good morning, Mother. I apologize that I have once again worried and troubled you both. You should have let this unfilial son visit you instead of you coming here."
