-A few minutes before arriving at Ashen Heights-
Kael returned to Lavinia after paying the remaining money to the leader of the shipmen.
"Five more minutes."
He started the conversation.
Lavinia nodded, staring at the rocky shore that they were about to arrive on. Yes, this place was her choice, but now that she was here, she was nervous.
After all, everything she knew about this place was from reports the Drakthar had received, she didn't know how much of it was true.
"Everything will be fine, don't worry."
Kael, who sensed her worries, spoke in a calm, confident tone. Again, Lavinia nodded at his words, but her eyes didn't move away from the Ashen Heights.
Kael had already gotten used to it, so he wasn't surprised. He decided to talk about what's important instead,
"Keep in mind that you are the only person who knows about Imperia's existence. For others, my Four Bonds are Igni, Cirri, Vita, and Nyrri, okay? Imperia's my trump card."
