Rowan then turned to Oriana, whom he had yet to greet. "Greetings, Your Highness."
Oriana nodded. "I have heard about you from Arlan. You three brothers are so brave, no wonder Erin is the same."
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness. I agree, our sister is one of a kind. We brothers admire her a lot."
Arlan's gaze shifted to Rafal, raising a brow. Rafal sighed inwardly, standing quietly. Arlan's expression made it clear to him that he would be questioned later. Rafal knew it well that nothing escaped his liege's gaze.
Soon, everything was prepared, and the entourage was ready to leave. Arlan and Oriana returned to their residences, while the two Ahren brothers asked to take Rafal away for a while. The three of them left the palace to return to the Ahrens.
They headed to Rowan's residence, where, upon entering the drawing room, Rowan slumped on the sofa and frowned.
"That man is a blockhead, I'm telling you two."
