Miorich led his men out of Violet City at the crack of dawn. At the center of the guards were the carriages carrying Anfey and his friends. After learning that Miorich was leaving the city, many people gathered to send him off. This may seem like a testament to how beloved Miorich was, but in truth the people of Violet City were simply scared. They had just experienced a brutal war, and many of the people were still terrified that the Shansa armies would return. Miorich’s presence reassured them. On the other hand, Miorich had always had a good reputation. The people of the city did not want to see someone like him go.
Anfey frowned and turned to Urter. "You should go back now," he said.
"I won’t let you down," Urter said sincerely.
Anfey blinked, then smiled. He was surprised that Urter could tell what he was thinking, and smiled because he had made a juvenile mistake.
"Alright," Anfey said. "I trust you." He nodded at Urter again and turned towards the carriage.
