"What about Esmeralda?" Rain asked.
"I don't think that she agrees with her father… but maybe my opinion is too biased," Branden said and then sighed.
"We can always ask her directly," Rain shrugged once he checked his hands, and he confirmed that they were mostly fine. "What is the supposed kidnapping of a princess compared to rebelling against the king?"
"That won't be easy…" Branden said while rubbing his chin thoughtfully. "I am starting to understand Joanis now, and it won't surprise me if the king and his family are out of the capital already and moving in incognito since they know that you can find them anywhere."
