"So this is Vastport City, the famous capital of the Althea Kingdom," Kent said, standing beside Uncle Drew and overlooking the vast city with its towering walls and great buildings.
"It's beautiful and well-protected," he added.
"Indeed. I was born and raised here, you know," Uncle Drew said, looking rather smug. Kent smiled but didn't comment on his smugness. Instead, he asked a more personal question.
"Do you still have relatives here?"
Uncle Drew smiled and shook his head. "They are all dead. I was from a merchant family that met an unfortunate incident on our way to the Elven Empire. It was about 40 years ago, give or take."
Kent's attention was drawn to the mention of a different race. "Sorry to hear that, but can I ask how it happened?"
Perhaps seeing the beautiful long ears on Nyxira, Elsa's Assassin Soul Sentinel, he wanted to meet the elves and perhaps find himself a long ear or two.
