Lanaya chatted with Darian about random things; sometimes they talked about the handsome men from the other kingdoms, or even the women. Darian answered everything, always emphasizing that none of them were even remotely close to his wife in beauty, personality, or any other aspect.

Lanaya got very curious about this incredible woman and, of course, asked where she was.
