Game of Hearts
At one of the famous inns of the Capital City, Darius, along with Osman and Calypso, rented out a private chamber where the three of them could have a private dinner with drinks to celebrate Calypso's return and subsequent appointment to his new position.
"Too bad that we don't have Gideon and Bartos with us!" Calypso scoffed as he offered another toast to the two men.
"Well, they're now with their other halves. You can no longer ask Bartos to randomly go out with you since he would rather just spend his spare time with his mate," Darius mumbled as he took another sip of his ale. "Meanwhile, Gideon is also very busy with my sister. Those two are apparently mates, so we'll probably witness their Ritual of Marking soon."
"I guess I have a lot of things to catch up on while I was away," Calypso snorted before turning his head to Osman and asking, "How about you, my friend? Do you also have a woman?"
