"Did he just call Erend his brother?" Billy asked in a muttering tone to Adrien.
"I heard that too," Adrien replied.
"We have to talk to him. Can you call him?" Aurdis repeated her words as the man looked suspiciously.

Afterward, Erend's face appeared next to the man with a look of relief.
"We don't have much time." Erend wasted no time in saying what he had to say.
Although Aurdis intended to ask about his condition, she canceled her intention because she felt a rush from Erend's voice.
