When Tobias started to make his way to Grant, what he did not expect to see when he got close was Kenneth leading a large group of men that way. Tobias hadn't sent word to Kenneth yet so what had occurred for Kenneth to do this without telling him?
Tobias rode toward Kenneth who also rode his way so they could speak. Now was the time to learn if Kenneth was still on his side.
"You are not dressed for war," Kenneth noted. Why wasn't the king clad in armour to protect himself? What were the men around him doing by letting the king be this way?
"War wasn't on my plans today but it has come to this. Your father employed a maid to put something in Hazel's tea to stop her from becoming a child. You know his fate," said Tobias, paying close attention to Kenneth's reaction.
