"Red hair..." Abel said, thinking about it. He wondered what is it about this event that got some people upset, as he didn't have all the details. But there's nothing he could do as it has happened in the past, but provide support and comfort, as people see him in his priest role.

Better focus in what he can do for the people, and gently push them for a better future.

"You must be very angry."

Ah, he stopped at the archway when the both of them got close, but if she keeps going, he'll follow her.

"Am I?"

[A side effect of her unstable magic, unable to be aware of when a personality momentarily takes over. She continues through the archway into the high fantasy city of Fayren. She follows down a road towards her own sub archway nestled along the city limits.]

"Well, yes... He took away any friends I had left. I'm all alone now."

[02crusnikabel]

So that's how archway work. How neat! Now Abel has to learn how to travel around.

"I'm saying, when people are killed and the murderer got away, there is no justice. So people cried out in anger for a resolution to the crime."

At that, he felt sad for her. "I'm sorry to hear that."

He placed a hand on her shoulder. "Well, you're not alone. Not anymore. You have me by your side." He said the exact same thing to Esther back home too, when she felt alone.

"Thank you..."

[While she appreciates the sentiment, the darkness clouding her mind is already too thick for her to fully believe it.

Before long, they reach another archway and Anastasia stopped in front of it.]

"...Here it is. This Sub Archway leads to my home city. Or rather, a replica of it. From here on, I'll receive a military escort and travel by carriage to my castle."

[02crusnikabel]

"A replica of it? How interesting."

[He made a mental note to research about the sub-archways and how do they work. Oh well, he'll just follow her again, because he was bored and have nothing else to do and he ends up in her kingdom.]

"I hope isn't rude for me to ask now that I am in a replica of your kingdom. But tomorrow morning, can you give me a tour of your kingdom?"

[Regardless it's the replica of the real thing.]

[innocent_royal]

[She gives him a small, almost playful smile.]

"Only if you explain to me how it is rude to ask for a tour of my kingdom's capital."

[That was obviously a yes.]

[02crusnikabel]

He smiled back, and he laughs at his own silliness.

"I'm your guest. It's a matter of courtesy. Just show me the inn where I can stay for the night."

[innocent_royal]

[Anastasia nods.]

"Right this way. We'll take a carriage. The inn is on the way to my castle, so we'll drop you off first."

[The princess approaches a carriage near the city gates and boards. She gives the driver instructions. Once Abel has boarded and taken a seat, they will be off.]

[02crusnikabel]

[Abel watched the scenery of her kingdom passed by her window as carriage is in motion.]

"Your kingdom is very beautiful. I like the peace here."
