"Your Highness, you could have summoned me to the palace," Odin remarked as Magnus and Griffin stepped down from the carriage.
Magnus adjusted his coat and replied, "I needed to speak with my in-laws personally." Odin nodded in understanding and stepped aside, allowing them to pass.
The trio entered the grand estate and made their way to the elegantly furnished living room, where Norman was already seated. Upon seeing the Prince, Norman promptly rose from his chair and greeted Magnus with a deep, respectful bow.
"Please, have a seat, Your Highness," Norman said, gesturing toward the main sofa. He then turned to a nearby servant and instructed, "Fetch my wife."
Magnus settled into the plush sofa, while Griffin and Odin remained standing, their expressions were attentive and vigilant.
