The current situation in Grinia was indeed very bad. When the carriage carrying King Gerold tried to enter the kingdom from Raycane, the driver must carefully choose a safer road for the vehicle to pass through.
Even some of the roads were damaged by the floods, and the horses had a hard time as they tried to pull the carriage that carried the blonde King from Raycane to Grinia.
The carriage shook violently during the journey, but King Gerold didn't even voice his protest even if the journey was far from uncomfortable.
How could the King voice his protest when he knew that his people had suffered more than him because of the flood? It was only today that he returned to Grinia, and only today did he witness the situation in Grinia, but the people had suffered for several days, and King Gerold knew that his feelings could not be compared to his people.
