374 Don't Spout Nonsense!

Seeing Ellena cry despondently, followed by Mars, Gewen felt moved too. He wiped his teary eyes and joined in the other two, crying for the queen's passing.

After weeks of holding in his sadness and pain to himself, finally, Mars was able to express his sorrow openly. These two were his closest friends. He needed them during the toughest times of his life.

It would be perfect if Edgar was here too, but at least now that he had Gewen and Ellena, he felt slightly better than if he was alone.

The three of them didn't say anything for half an hour after they cried together. It was hard to speak. No words of consolation could make a difference. The queen had died and no amount of tears could bring back the dead.

The tea had long been cold when Mars finally ask Ellena to sit down so they could talk.
