Kapitel 43: Empty-handed

Prince Noore and Old Lin stood in front of the large treehouse wrapped in colorful blossoming flowers. Green and blue summer bugs flattered around the fragrant flowers, spreading their seeds.

The scrambling sound of approaching footsteps thumped loudly in the high tree. Then the lithe figure of a young, blonde female in yellow garb, gingerly climbing down the wooden stairs entered their sight.

The female jumped down on the last step and turned, greeting them with a sunny smile that radiated off her youthful figure. Her watery gaze politely swept over Old Lin before coming to rest on Prince Noore. Instantly, her expression shifted as surprise marred her polite appearance.

"Little Ruen, we came here to find the Old Seer. I sent Paal and Yuam earlier to inform the Old Master. Is he in?" Old Lin gently smiled at the young girl that was as old as his daughter, his elderly expression filled with adoration for the child.
