All of the guards' attention was grabbed by a gust of dark mist that started to form not too far away from them. The guards thought that it was another trick of the witches.
"Everyone, be on your guard! It looks like something is coming." The squad leader ordered his soldiers while he readied himself to fight whatever it was.

Contrary to what they had expected, three people walked out of that mist, two of whom they recognized.
They were none other than Princess Adeline and Prince Raphael. However, all of the soldiers were still on their guard because both the Princess and Prince were in their full battle armors and were also carrying their weapons.
