In the shadow of a great man

Near Portgreen city, 2:00 pm.

In an area near the west road, there is an improvised camp in the same place where Lucien's female troops had made camp before the battle for Portgreen city.

Now Lucien's male troops are camped there. Alden only had orders from Lucien to join his other troops near the city, but they didn't really have a way of communicating.

Lucien could have left one of his wives with the male troops, but he knew it would be very uncomfortable for any of his wives. Also, the male troops were not so significant for Lucien to make one of his wives stay away from him like that.

Well, now he had Ivan's stone, which matched Olivia's stone and it could be used for communication over long distances as Ivan used it to send short messages to Olivia even though he was hundreds of miles away from her.
