The three of them – Theodore, Ariel, and Herbert – reached in front of the main entrance of the castle of Romania.
They reached there just in time to be greeted by Joyce and Vlad. The pair had just arrived at the entrance to wait and receive the Prince Consort and the Princess of Wyverndale upon their arrival.
Vlad bowed to Theodore and formally welcomed him to the Kingdom of Romania. "Long live, Your Royal Highness," he greeted.
Theodore gave a nod to acknowledge the greeting of the Crown Prince. And he couldn't help but say with a slight smile on his face, "I most certainly will outlive almost everyone who is present here, Crown Prince."
Vlad and Joyce instantly broke into laughter at the blunt humor of Theodore.
Theodore finally turned his gaze from Vlad to Joyce.
"Uncle Theodore." Joyce gave a gentle bow first and quickly hopped forward to give a hug to Theodore. She then softly whispered to him, "Welcome back again, Uncle."
