After the banquet ended, it did not take too long for the hall to be emptied out. Queen Carolina, King Jaren, Jules, Bella, Mana, Raven, Azar and Alya were naturally the last ones to leave.
Fox and Vanilla had stayed behind today as well, because they, too, wanted to meet the new baby dragon. The two of them had been busy touring the imperial capital city of the Sapphire Kingdom, so they had completely missed the arrival of the little white dragon Alya – and now that they had seen her at the banquet, both Fox and Vanilla had been enamoured. Both of them adored little Azar anyway, and now that adoration would extend to little Alya as well, they decided.
Azar introduced Alya to the couple very enthusiastically. "Alya, this is Uncle Fox, he is very clever and works with Mommy and Daddy and Uncle Jules and Auntie Bella! You can call him Uncle Fox, too!" he said happily.
Alya nodded shyly and greeted in a sweet voice, "Hello, Uncle Fox."
