Eric followed Lily into a simple but warm home. Inside, Eric saw various family photos and memories of the past on the walls. One of them was of a handsome and dashing young man. Eric believed that the photo of the young man was Charles Thomas, Lily Thomas' son.
Lily invited Eric to sit down and served him a cup of Shrub Field's finest honey tea.
Of course, being a guest of an old woman, Eric behaved politely by sipping a little of the honey tea. The taste was even very delicious, and Eric didn't feel anything strange at all, like when he was almost poisoned at the inn. He was sure that this honey tea contained no poison, but was the best honey.
Lily asked the question again. "How can I help you, Mr. Eric?"
"I just came to find out about the death of your son, Charles Thomas, and also about this sunflower contest. Prince Moran felt guilty about what happened in the Sun Kingdom, so he asked for my help."
