"Shopia." Ragnar called out.

And Sophia quickly averted her gaze back to Ymat as Ragnar turned to look in her direction.

Ragnar clicked his tongue twice, a signal that immediately drew Ymat's attention. The dragon obediently approached Ragnar, who then mounted with practiced ease.

Sophia, trying to pierce the silence between them, called out hesitantly, "Your Highness?"

Without turning to face her, Ragnar responded tersely, "I must go."

Feeling both rejected and perplexed, Sophia persisted, "Your Highness, I respectfully request a moment of your time. Please allow me to express my views on the crisis we are currently facing."

Ragnar, now seated atop Ymat, glanced over his shoulder, his expression unreadable. "There's nothing to say," he stated flatly before giving another sharp click of his tongue.
