While Julian watched Byron and Mystia disappear from the Blacksmith Guild's main hall, Theraldine and Valyr had stayed near Julian's private workshop in the meantime. Thinking to each other that the Guildmaster still had more things to say to them, they recalled the words Julian told them before they left.
"Hey, Theraldine." Continuing to wait for Theraldine's father to appear, Valyr decided to strike up a conversation with the young woman, his mind recalling what had transpired earlier.
"What is it?" Oblivious to what was going on in the young man's mind, Theraldine looked back at Valyr, slightly curious.
"Sorry," said Valyr in response, causing the young woman's expression to swiftly turn into that of confusion.
"Sorry? Sorry for what?"
