The door of the large room was shut, it was quiet. It was clear that the library was empty. He could see sunlight streaming through the high windows, illuminating rows of scrolls and books. When he opened the door, he was surprised to see Ulfur busy reading something. He was perched on the table trying to copy something on a parchment.

"Why would I leave? I don't have to strengthen my border. But I have informed my father. He will keep an eye too, don't worry," replied Ulfur.

"I have to train too. Didn't you hear King Alder's words? Youngsters are here to stay to train. Isn't Edwina staying here too?"

"So you are staying here for Edwina?" asked Aaron ready to throw his hands at Ulfur.
