Chapter 462: Return

              While Drannor and Noemi were trying to get closer to Milliendra, Zaos and Aleni were approaching the capital of the Sairus kingdom. The Brien army was forced to retreat at some point, but several other smaller ones began to follow Zaos and the others. Still, they never attacked. On the day Zaos' group finally could see the capital in the distance, he decided to stop and camp even though it was noon.

"Are we expecting someone?" Aleni asked.

"Since we can't see an army blocking our path, I believe that the people there have other plans for us," Zaos said. "In any case, they will probably send one of my old friends to talk to me before doing anything."

"If I were them, I would have allocated an army here," Aleni said.
