510 Steppes' Market

The next morning Ailwin awoke to the sounds of people working outside his window. After walking back to the palace with Mika late last night, he had rushed off to his room to take cold bath, before retiring to his bed to sleep. Although his body did not want to cooperate.

*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*

"Coming!"

Ailwin walked towards the door thinking it was Braeden with something to discuss. However, after opening the door, he saw Mikaela standing there waiting.

"What is wrong?"

"I'm going to the market today. Do you want to come along?" 

"Sure, let me get dress and I'll meet you in the dining hall."

"En." Mika has an appointment meet with some the clan leaders this morning. She figured she'll take Ailwin along as back up, since some of the clan leaders and merchants are a little hard headed when it comes to making deals with females.
