Hanson Lorin just entered the Crown Prince's tent in the camp of the Royal Army. When he noticed his friend paying all his attention to the portrait on his hand, he walked to him and took a look at it.
"Why do you keep on staring at this portrait?" he finally asked. It's not like the General didn't know whose portrait it was, but... Arin seemed to be troubled a lot by this mere portrait.
What had gotten into him?!
"Do you think the Duke of Borland is still alive?" Crown Prince Arin asked his friend back. He had heard many rumors about the Duke since he was young and... none of them was great.
Even before the downfall of Nardodia, the Duke of Borland always had an eye on his older brother's throne. As such, an internal conflict never ceased which greatly contributed to their downfall despite being one of the most powerful kingdoms just a decade ago.
