章 204: I Don't Belong Here

As they proceeded to walk, Seren was busy with Xena looking around various things and discussing which variation or what color to buy, while Drayce and Arlan side by side, keeping their pace to match with Seren's.

Arlan did not look interested in anything, while Drayce looked interested at nothing but his wife. Their knights separated, half keeping close while the others distanced themselves, doing their job of protecting their group. However, the knights were moving so casually they blended well with the crowd, and only a trained eye would have noticed their subtle formation. Oriana was the only one walking quietly behind her master, like a forgotten errand boy.

The prince's and his friend's words would reach her ears from time to time, but in general, she would often slow down her pace to keep herself several steps away, out of hearing range.
