"Yep, it's me! May I come in?" Aurien spoke; his voice was slightly muffled through the tent walls, but it was still easy to recognize.
Ezra placed Lior down on the bed before standing up.
'Why is he here?' Ezra thought, though he didn't mind.
After everything earlier, after how Aurien had handled things, Ezra had no reason to feel uneasy about his presence.
If anything, he was… pleasantly surprised.
Aurien had helped.
Not just in a small way, but in a way that actually mattered.
Sure, Ezra still felt bad for Helios, that hadn't gone away, but that didn't change the fact that Aurien had stepped in when things could have gone worse.
Ezra walked over and pulled the tent flaps aside, revealing Aurien standing there with a gentle smile.
"Hello, Your Highness," Ezra greets, bowing as Aurien steps inside.
"No need for that," Aurien says with a small laugh, waving it off casually.
