"BROTHER!"
Anwen's scream that sounded panicked made the three people in the room startled. Trish immediately got up to open the door, followed by Rion and Odette.
"Brother!"
Rion was surprised because Anwen suddenly called him, and he was confused because Anwen looked panicked. "What is it?" he asked.
"Emperor Dario and his three thousand troops are heading for Panthera."
Rion's eyes widened as his breath hitched slightly when he heard what Anwen had just said. The same thing seemed to happen to Trish.
"Who told you this?" Roon asked. Anwen explained that she had been alerted by a soldier carrying a message from the troop leader guarding the southern border.
"The soldier is waiting outside," Anwen added.
Without further ado, Rion immediately went to meet the soldier for more information, while Trish, Anwen and Odette followed closely behind.
