A man was standing behind a tree dressed in all black. He struck two stones as a signal that the Northendell party had passed neutral territory and entered Northendell's territory. Together with the group, they saw a man riding in the front row wearing all black clothes with a golden mask.
Information flowed very quickly, and the palace hall had received news that King Ronan had entered Nieverdell. He would only arrive tomorrow night, coinciding with the peak night of the summer festival.
Arielle frowned in confusion. Didn't she meet Ronan on the way home yesterday? But who was the masked man leading the cavalry?
But Arielle was relieved to hear that because it was a sign that Kael, who was in charge of guarding the neutral area as they planned yesterday, had carried out his duties well.
