Bel watched Brian run around the field excitedly. There wasn't any sign of the incident from yesterday; this was a relief, but she knew he wouldn't be eager to go back to the tunnels. The good news was there was no reason to. However, she was slightly worried about when they would have to return to Landerfell. Would Brian be able to handle the journey out of here?
Bel watched him trot to her, slowing down as he stopped in front of her. Her eyes trailed to his front hoof, which he lifted as if to show her it was alright. She giggled and walked towards him, stretching out her hand to touch him.
Suddenly, he took a step back, and Bel turned to see a servant walking towards her. Bel jerked as she caught sight of him and brought her hand to her chest, startled.
"Princess," he said with his head bent.
"What's wrong?" she asked with a slight frown while trying to recover from the fright.
"Nothing, I apologize for scaring you."
