"My queen, let us forget about this Themisphere people. We will protect this kingdom ourselves," Dytess uttered. "For all we know, the Themisphere is simply the same as Liguritudum. They just want to conquer us!"

"You can shove your pride up your–Mmhh!" Jeanny pressed her hand onto John's mouth to stop him from completing his words.

Jack didn't respond to either Dytess or Zoikod. His eyes remained on Aldryth who was still silent.
