Mosce and his son had their own worries, as they were constantly taking glances at the door of the hall like they were waiting for someone to come.
On the other hand, Rhaet seemed calm. He was patiently waiting. On the inside, he was also thinking about how the plan would work out. He did say that he would try to kill them all, but what would happen after that, he didn't know. He was calculating every step, but at the same time, he knew there were things that he could not control. Initially, he assumed that the appearance of these new people would allow him to earn more gold. But to his surprise, he wasn't getting much, and they came here and built a town for themselves. Even if he didn't get the gold, at least he thought he could meet the lord and gain some familiarity with him. Again, Rhaet was disappointed; their lord only sent his messengers and his men, but not once did he visit this place. Rhaet's expectations were repeatedly dashed. Rhaet had been expecting to make a great profit from the beasts' bodies that his men had killed in the forests.
Both parties had different thoughts about the event and were now standing opposite each other on the first floor.
On the ground floor, preparations were being carried out. The table on the stage was filled with all kinds of meat and fruits. Most importantly, barrels of wine were brought into the hall. It was placed on one side of the hall. The room was filled with a festive atmosphere as all the ingredients were carefully laid out and people were excitedly discussing the upcoming feast.
Rhaet was only standing there, watching below. Katheryn was nowhere to be seen. She left in the early morning after a discussion with Rhaet. She was with Rhaet until yesterday night. Rhaet had explained everything he planned. After hearing the plan, She was a little hesitant but she decided that she had to go along with his plan. After all, she loved her brother. Although Katheryn was uncertain of her brother's intentions, she trusted him and gave a nod to support his decision.
The hall was starting to get busier with all the people coming in. Members from the village have already arrived. Ragna was taking care of their seats. The majority of those who arrived belonged to the Solvwulf tribe. Ragna was delighted to see so many people arrive, as it had been a long time since her village held such a large gathering.
After all of them settled in their respective places, a while passed.
Mosce and his son came down from the first, and Rheat also came down with them as he saw them. Mosce walked straight to the door.
Rhaet was confused by Mosce's sudden action. But it was soon cleared by the sounds of running horses.
He looked at where the noise was coming from and saw a large group of soldiers in full armor riding toward the hall. Rhaet then realized that Mosce had heard the soldiers coming and had come down to welcome them. The group was riding in a line, with a few men riding in front wearing different types of armor compared to the soldiers. They had two riders in front of them, leading them. Rhaet immediately realized that these two men in the front were important leaders and were most likely from the Ditrayn.
