Bab 510: Regaining What's Lost I

After the disaster of a wedding, none of the guests stayed for long. Most of them departed for their homes after the banquet ended the night before, and as for those who traveled far to attend — such as King Calarian and Queen Lavinia — they stayed for the night and left Vramid in the wee hours of the dawn.

Cordelia and King Marinus were the last ones to leave, along with their entourage. Yet, the time still came for them to bid their goodbyes.
