Ronan re-explained the reason he had discussed with Priest Elis earlier, why Arielle and he couldn't get married immediately. Since Arielle was a princess of a big kingdom, they should do the wedding properly. That's why they needed to inform Arielle's family in the South.
Ronan had to propose to the girl by giving a gift to the South, and then he would bring Arielle back to the North.
"Oh, do I have to go back South?" asked Arielle, feeling surprised by the knowledge.
The man let out a long sigh then rested his head on Arielle's shoulder. "I really don't want to make you return to the South."
Arielle patted Ronan's mask lightly. The man grabbed Arielle's hand and played with the girl's fingers.
"If it's necessary, I'm fine with it. I'll use the opportunity to learn to be a more worthy woman to be your wife."
Ronan grabbed Arielle's face.
