The sound of Thea and her brother's footsteps echoed across the hallway floor in tandem as they headed toward the front door where everyone should have been waiting.
Even before the two of them had reached the foyer, they already heard the sound of arguing and grimaced.
"Shit..."
"Damn it, what is the point of issuing a gag order if people weren't going to stay quiet.."
Disgruntled, Thea pushed open the doors to the hall and caught the end of a rather heated conversation.
Darius: "... we aren't children, lads and lassies! Your father had no right to keep these missions a secret from us!"
Kirina: "What is the point of raising an army if he is just going to sideline us at the first sign of trouble?"
Hakon: "The fact that my god has such little faith in our ability is indeed a tough pill to swallow..."
