Off-beat moment

"That was quite a show you put out there, Rishna."

"I-I was only doing what I can for my Kingdom."

Currently, Rishna and I are walking down the hall towards the barracks with several knights guarding me and her.

Since these are Natarak and his Gardelian soldiers and Ace and the gang, we could let out guards down for a bit.

Of course, I still have my restraints as formality. Courtesy of Axi'an so I can pretty much tell that they have a way to know if I ever tried to take them off.

The Axi'an soldiers are with their prince and Zyph is back to her quarters and is being tended to by the palace nurses in secrecy.

For now, I can't do much as Rose except observe and relay any findings I have as Red from the other side.

With these restraints, I am vulnerable to any lethal attacks, so I am counting on Ace and Natarak's protection.

"By the way, how is Ana doing at the moment?"
