I saw a girl

"Your Highness," Adela addressed Draven with a respectful nod, her gaze steady as she raised her head.

"I have something important to discuss with you." 

Draven's stern demeanor softened slightly as he regarded Adela. "Something important? What is it?" he inquired, his voice tinged with curiosity.

"I talked about it with you so long ago, could you remember?" Adela asked, a flicker of hope in her eyes.

Draven narrowed his eyes, recognizing the gravity of Adela's expression. A memory stirred within him, hinting at the significance of their past discussions. With a silent nod, he rose from his throne and gestured for Adela to follow.

Carson, a silent witness to the unfolding exchange, stood nearby. The king's summons extended only to Adela, leaving Carson to quietly observe from the sidelines.

Adela turned to address Carson with a reassuring nod.
