บท 227: Again, a relationship between two people does not need consent from a third party

On the other side of L'Anaak Edd, two towers were looming over the western district. One of them was the magic tower where the magician, alchemist, and formation masters did their work. 

The other tower was a building that had been there for as long as the residents remembered. That building was where the Council of Elders was.

That was where Natha went this morning without even having his breakfast. 

I guessed it was a play of some sort; sending him a summon at the break of dawn before he could properly gather himself or have a bite. At least he took a coffee while he got ready. 

Of course, as the Lord, he could just ignore the summon. But doing that would mean he challenged the Council, and...well, that would be a whole another headache.
