‘Let’s just-’

The news spread quickly.

The head of the royal council, Theodore Black was back.

People rejoiced. They celebrated.

After all, finally, their conditions would improve.

Right after Theo and the others left, Sandra tried to offer the R.I a place to stay and work alongside them. However, though the R.I had accepted and worked for the betterment of both kinds, last week out of nowhere, they declared their previous arrangements to be null and void. And promptly left the place.

Humans had also ceased contacting this place for over two weeks. And it sufficed to say, things were awfully slow.

Meaning the Sahalla needed their king more than ever, right now. 

"And that's all, my lord," Sandra informed Theo of everything. 

Emily was just lying on the bed, unconscious while Theo was sitting next to her, listening to Sandra.
