The warm and bright Fire Element burned silently within the fireplace as William Boh put down the thick book he hadn't turned the pages of for a long time and nodded slightly to Li Fo, "Please have a seat, Mr. Astor."
"Just call me Li Fo, Your Majesty."
The latter smiled warmly, silently pulled out a chair, and sat down opposite William, asking softly, "It seems you have another guest tonight?"
William knew the other had noticed another unoccupied chair and quickly nodded, "Yes, I've also invited Duke Fossai. After all, discussions limited to two people can be restrictive, but before he arrives, I want to hear how 'that person' has been recently."
