Alexander felt better to have Mathias back on his side. It didn't feel good when they argued and they should be on good terms when they found Rose so their reunion would be sweet.
"It would be good if we could go to the brothel if it opens tonight, but we need to speak to the commander. We are to go to the palace and the foreigners will be there. He expects us to see him speak about safety measures with the foreigners in the palace," said Mathias.
Alexander didn't think the meeting would take long so he wasn't concerned about missing going to the brothel when it opened. "We should speak to him as soon as we are done here to get this over with."
"I cannot speak to him right now. I already have something to do right now. An order that I can't ignore so please speak with him alone and then I will come back to join you tonight. Do not leave without me. Excuse me," Mathias said, hurrying off to leave the camp.
