Such A Busy Day

The rest of their journey home became quiet. Both were thinking about Xion. Emma was sad that she caused Xion to get injured, while the king was feeling guilty that he couldn't heal the man because they were no longer friends.

He was deep in thoughts. It looked like Xion was still unwilling to forgive him. Xion must know that Emma and Therius were in Innstad. He did save Emma from Alderaan's attack when the boy was under his uncle's oppression.

Now, come to think of it, if Emma wasn't in danger, maybe Xion wouldn't even bother. 

Therius missed Xion so badly, but now he must accept the reality that Xion might never forgive him, and thus, their relationship would be forever severed.

What's the use of getting the information of his whereabouts from Marci if Xion didn't want to be found? Therius would never force anyone to be his friend.
