Many nobles and high-ranking military officers who were in the capital gathered at the vast camp established by King Horace Varence for the hunting competition. Not just warriors, there were also many noble ladies present because according to the invitation of the King, the competition will be contested in pairs - a man and a woman per team.
It was almost time for the registration to close but Crown Prince Hemeri was bothered by one thing - Commander Eloria wasn't there yet.
Was she planning to ignore his advice? The thought made Hemeri let out a dry chuckle. He wasn't that confident but... in his eyes, she was too ambitious to miss the competition after everything he said to her the day before.
"Are things not going as you planned?"
Hemeri turned around upon hearing the voice and saw King Horace approaching him. "What do you mean?" He asked once the King stood beside him.
