MEETING THE LIEUTENANT

ASTRID observed the man. Even though the other had a polite smile on his face, he could tell that it's mainly a business smile. Like a businessman that was meeting an important client. Astrid didn't mind though. At least he knew that this guy wanted to talk to him because of 'business' and not because of some personal reason.

And this 'business' just happened to be somehow connected to the only prince of the Empire.

"Since we're already alone, I very much prefer if you can now tell me what this was all about," he said straightforwardly with an equally polite smile.

He didn't want to go around the bush before they could even go to the main point. Aside from the fact that he's really hungry and couldn't wait to eat, he's also worried that something might have happened to Wulfric, that's why this person suddenly came to him.
