"Your Holiness, I returned yesterday, but as it was late, I did not want to disturb your rest," Mensai responded reverently.

Gregory nodded, but didn't say a word until they had left the Prayer Hall and reached the quiet courtyard. He then asked again,

"How goes the situation? I heard a band of Orcs attacked Springs Town?"

"Everything is going smoothly, Your Holiness." Mensai responded with a smile. "Colin Angler is now under the control of Prince Lexie. As for the Orc raiding party... yes, it was unexpected, but it hasn't affected our plans."

"That's good," Pope Gregory responded satisfactorily while nodding. But then he asked, "However, how did the Orc attack happen to occur in Springs Town?"
