The ship arrived at Lothmire City a day later, jolting Maximus from his engrossing read. The token in his pocket vibrated, reminding him of their arrival at the central continent.
Although he still had a few days to spare on the ship, he decided to abandon his reading and disembark.
Stepping outside, he was greeted by a crowd of thousands of people pouring out of the .ship
Fortunately, he made his way to the VIP lane, ensuring a smooth exit.
Just as he was making his way through, a familiar voice called out his name.
"Maximus!" Griffin's voice echoed across the bustling crowd.
Maximus turned his attention to Griffin, who approached him with a group of companions.
"How are you? I didn't see you for the rest of the trip," Griffin complained.
"Oh? It's none of your business," Maximus dismissed him, refusing to indulge in his drama.
Griffin pouted like an aggrieved girl, causing Maximus to suppress a shiver.
