After Lexus left, Aion wondered about the prince. Wouldn't usually the first kid have his marriage first in that kind of world? Since he was the future king, his family was probably being cautious about it.
"Come to think of it, I beat the crap out of him, and I was still invited for the marriage of his sister…" Aion thought.
Regardless, while it was a bit troublesome, Aion had to separate some time for that event. Artemisia probably doesn't want to return to the capital, so Aion felt that leaving her with the death knights was the best option.
Over the course of the next weeks, Aion told Jairo to take some guards to move and build some watchtowers across the terrain. The distance that one person could cross that area until the next part of the Rosberg kingdom could be crossed on a single day, so maybe there wasn't much point in having those, but Aion wanted them anyway.
