The rulers of the Miscello region were surprised by the unannounced arrival of Prince Algis. However, they welcomed the prince as best they could. The carpets in the hall were spread out and the crystal chandeliers throughout the house were lit.
"What brings the Crown Prince of this country to come unannounced!"
He knew that the ruler of the Miscello Region was not a capable ruler. If it weren't for Miscello's rich and fertile crops, the people's lives would be very bad with such an incompetent ruler. But even then, the ruler should have known the news of what was happening in his region.
"I was on my way to the border on a diplomatic mission, and suddenly there was a black beast explosion. That's why we used warp to get here!" Prince Algis summarized the events. "How long has the stone gate over the Miscello region been open?"
The lord tilted his head. Then he looked to his servants for help. But they all remained silent.
