Maia was sure that she didn't even take more than ten minutes to finish meeting with the Verdant Prince and Princess. But as soon as she was out of the Pavilion's sight, she was faced with a very tired Seth rushing towards her. He seemed to have something urgent to say to her.
"Is something the matter?" She asked, a little worried. He doesn't seem to be in a good condition. She should have expected it after dropping the news of her impending departure right after waking up from her another month long sleep. Every time she looked at him, it broke her a little inside.
"Where were you? I came to find you but your room was empty." He said as his fingers closed on her elbow. His hand was cold and his grip a little tight.
"Prince Bastian asked for a meeting. I just finished meeting him." Maia said, her warm hand on top of his. Her warmth brought back some light to his eyes but she didn't miss the glare he shot in the direction of the pavilion.
