We met Galdea at her office, which was located inside her residence itself. Calling it just a residence honestly felt like an understatement, though. The place was enormous. It was less like a normal home and more like a small estate that happened to have walls around it. Even from the outside, the building gave off that quiet kind of authority that made you instinctively straighten your posture a little. You didn't need someone to tell you that an important person lived there. The place practically screamed it on its own.
The moment our car rolled through the large front gates and into the courtyard, several knights immediately stepped forward and stopped us before we could go any further. They were clearly on high alert, hands resting near their weapons, their eyes scanning us carefully like they were trying to dissect every little detail about who we were and why we were there.
We handed them the letter.
