Every action has a reason

Mark walked up to him and they embraced each other.

"Mark, you are okay!" He said happily.

"I am."

"Mark, I am so sorry, I accused you falsely, you did nothing wrong, it was all a misunderstanding," he apologized.

They disengaged from the hug, "I understand your majesty," he nodded, "that is all in the past now, there is no need to apologize."

He sighed, "I am so sorry once again," he bit his lips.

Mark patted his back,"everything will be fine soon."

He faced selena, "I hope you had no troubles during the journey."

She shook her head, "it was fine."

He closed his eyes, "this will be temporary, do not worry," he said trying to console himself more than them.

Elena sat down, "what about the others? Are they okay? It would be selfish of us to lead ourselves to safety and leave them under that monster."

"They are all safe mother, they are fine," he assured her.
