Exposing Friends And Foes

Riley cleared her throat as she looked around one more time before she began her story, or rather the capital's story.

"Around a thousand years ago, the emperor who founded the empire was deep in thought. He wanted to protect his kingdom forever but he knew that he would die someday. However, he knew that weapons and armour can be passed down, into the future. To make this kingdom everlasting, create weapons of utmost intelligence!" She allowed a pause before she looked around to make sure that everyone was paying attention to what she was saying.

Thankfully they were, and they all paid rapt attention. She discerned the weird look on Rin's face. Rin had never looked at her that way. He seemed more angry than serious. She looked away immediately to avoid bursting out laughing. She continued the story shortly after.
