Peace offering to the cursed prince

A meeting room somewhere in Bozoa Royal City.

King George was facing his young nephew Thomas, a prince from Phrygia. King George's younger sister was married off to Prince Thomas's father years ago.

This sister did not share the same mother with George so they were not close but they did not have any gauge against each other.

"It is like Mother said, Bozoa is really a beautiful kingdom," prince Thomas said. King George only nodded his head in response to his statement.

"Uncle, I can call you that right?" Prince Thomas asked. Although these two people are related by blood, this was the first time they meet.

"It fine," king George answered plainly. If not for the many years of allies that he shared with the kingdom of Phrygia he would have directly regretted this prince or sent one of his sons but it was unfortunate that the two were occupied.
