บท 59: Conquest { XIX }

About five minutes had passed since Ren and Liara arrived. Most of that time, Liara spent with Bruce, crying her heart out in his embrace. It was a great relief that she was finally out of Glenwood's torturous hands and now in the arms of her loved ones.

Far away from the commotion, Rowan sat on his horse and observed the entire scene with a calm expression on his face. He patiently waited for Liara and Bruce to finish their emotional moment before taking any action.

Another two minutes passed, and Liara finally let go of Bruce and turned to look at Rowan.
