The light from the sconce hit his face, revealing the bloodstain all over him. He was wiping his hand covered in blood with a handkerchief, his eyes on me.

"I know you can fight them on your own, but His Grace said he will meet you on the east border. It will be more troublesome to get rid of them."

"If you truly trust His Grace, you should come with me, my lady," Fabian uttered solemnly. "Please, Your Grace."
