Ronan seemed to recognize the rabbit. Its size was reminiscent of the rabbit he had lifted from the snow.
"Lucas!" Ronan's call made Lucas rush after the king.
"Is there anything I can help you with, Your Majesty?"
"He's the rabbit that fell into the snow when we left, isn't he? The one who doesn't want to part with Arielle?"
"That's right, Your Majesty. It's the same rabbit," Lucas confirmed.
Ronan let out a long sigh. He put the rabbit back on the ground.
"After you meet Priest Elis, tell Princess Arielle that one of her friends is with me. Ah, and tell her to get it right away in my room."
Lucas nodded in understanding. William smiled broadly as he watched the king slow down so that the little rabbit could follow with every step he took.
