"Eann…" Fenris reached out to lift the crying boy's chin. How pitiful did Eann have to be before he stopped wailing for a fault that wasn't his own? Fenris couldn't even see anything wrong with Eann's actions… only that was reckless since he faced a more powerful enemy.

The king then smiled. "It's not your fault. Don't worry. I'll make it right."

"…but Your Majesty, you're not supposed to do anything…" Eann sniffed, and Kanaru twitched. Fenris didn't even flinch when Eann called him despite the body swap.
