Lucien was sitting in one of the gazebos along with Lela, standing not too further away. After the yesterday's night incident, Efthalia's personality completely switched. He went from being a concerned and caring person to stone cold like somebody had irritated him.
The festival still continued for the second day. Lucien decided to stay for a day since Efthalia has as well got himself to attend a work related to him. She guessed it was about those pacts he had mentioned trying to maintain peace on this island.
"Where have all you been yesterday?" Lucien asked. Tea was placed on the table along with some snacks which were only found on this island. "I thought you wouldn't be away too far." That's what they had said. They would be following behind and would appear when they were in need.
"We got lost in the crowd.." Lela replied. "We were following until that theater, unexpectedly people gathered and we lost you and His Majesty."
