The inner court gathered yet again for their evening service. When Kanaru got there after changing out of his blooded presentation dress and laundering it, he saw how Eann and Henrik attended like they were unhurt. However, Melaka and Rosamund were asking Henrik about his injuries as if they heard about the fight from someone in the outer court.
Fenris was not yet there, so the concubines could dilly-dally. Most of them discussed the attack just this evening, Puri even highlighting how cool Joca was when she was fighting the bandit. She didn't know how to describe what happened with Kanaru's fight, so she just avoided it altogether.
As for Bebe, she continued to stare at Kanaru. Even when Kanaru acknowledged her, she still kept watching him from her spot at the table. When Ririka noticed the staring, she just copied Bebe. It made Kanaru more uncomfortable.
