"What the hell do you mean by 'ordered' his presence ?" Erica was fuming as she smacked away the hand from Zorat's shoulder.
The guard looked indignantly at Erica but knowing he couldn't pull the same stunt with Erica who was an 'actual' hero, he chose to use his words.
"My lady hero. It is the grand vizier's order to …"
"I don't care if it's the king himself. No one in this kingdom has the right to order us around. We are not your kingdom's citizens are we ?"
Erica was riled up, and Zorat had to pat her back a couple of times to calm her down. Her nature was indeed fiery, a kind of spice he liked.
But Zorat was already prepared for and expecting this moment. He knew the grand vizier would definitely call for him after what he saw, which Zorat wasn't completely sure of as well what he did see.
"It's okay Erica. I'll go and see what the matter is and be right back." Zorat said with a reassuring smile at Erica.
