It Runs In The Family

"You shouldn't have come here," Nicklaus Elan finally spoke up. "Welahan isn't for the Queen of Yevalon."

The Queen sensed indifference in the Commander's words and tone and though it wasn't unexpected, she was still feeling hurt by it.

"Please return, Your Majesty," Nicklaus Elan said in a formal tone. "Don't ever come here again." He briefly paused and added, "I come to tell you this."

The expression on the Queen's face... it made Nicklaus Elan squeeze the black cloak he was wearing.

Just like the rumors, she appeared very elegant and gentle too.
