The town was busy and pretty crowded. The banquet prepared for Cohen was full of nobles and aristocrats, the king was also there, a prideful smile plastered on his face. You too was excited to see him You woke up early and dressed, making sure you look pretty and presentable. You rushed to the banquet excitedly only to meet his cold gaze, you couldn't tell if his eyes are normally colored red. No, they're full of hatred.

"Your majesty," Cohen knelt down before the king, his hand on the sheath of his sword. "The long way journey I took taught me some things, it's full of challenges."

The nobles and aristocrats cheered their drinks, murmuring to themselves and chuckling, smiling ear to ear.
