One Last Goodbye

Vetranis sat in his palace library with a warm smile on his aging face. Seated across from him were his only daughter and her three young children. This was perhaps the first time that the Byzantine Emperor had met all three of his grandchildren, and because of that, he felt at ease for the first time in a long time.

However, Honoria's visit to her homeland was not as simple as a family reunion. Her father had deliberately summoned her and her children to his home. She did not know what he was planning, but surely it was something significant. 

Despite her concerns, she had not yet had the ability to speak with her father alone, as the man was too enthralled with his grandchildren to bother speaking with her. Currently, the man was ignoring his daughter and instead showing off the ancient records which the Byzantine Palace held within its personal library to his young grandson.
