Alexander didn't have a reply to the statement, and Khan didn't wait for it. Khan departed, leaving Alexander on the terrace while he returned inside the building.
Sadly, that marked the end of Khan's solitary mourning period. The news of his return had long since reached every corner of the planet, and his inner circle had given him some privacy, but that time was over. The tournament's second day was starting, so the chances of offering condolences were running out.
Familiar auras touched Khan's senses as soon as he entered the building. Alexander had gone to the terrace but didn't reach the area alone. Princess Felicia, Prince William, and their mother were waiting inside and didn't stay still at Khan's arrival.
"Cousin!" Princess Felicia called, almost shouting, rushing forward. Khan half-expected a bow, but Princess Felicia hugged him, her squeeze's strength conveying her sorrow.
