~Talfen, the capital of Coldshore~
~Inner Court, Reqiel's Palace~
The day went by quickly, and although Princess Aethel had made it sound like she would be right back, there was still no sign of her hours later.
Sarell hadn't told Reqiel about her appearance earlier in the day because he thought that she would return but as the day turned into dusk and she hadn't returned, he found himself trudging to the library.
He knocked gently, aware that Reqiel was busy inside of the library. He pushed open the door and stepped in to find Prince Reqiel in the same position he left him in hours ago.
"Your Highness, won't you like to take a walk today?" He found himself offering.
