"So Lana didn't come?" After getting into the limousine, Daniel greeted him and looked around. Except for Varnos, he couldn't spot anyone else in the car.
Of course, aside from the driver who was busy driving.
"No," Varnos answered without hesitation. His face was calm and composed, as if they weren't possibly heading into a dangerous ceremony.
It was clear he had mentally prepared himself for whatever might happen.
"You didn't let her?" Daniel sighed and sat down on the seat. The car door closed and they started moving. Their destination was about half an hour away.
"It's dangerous, and I don't want to put her in harm's way too," the guild leader gave a short explanation. He had no intention of bringing anyone with him to that ceremony.
Daniel was an exception, and only because of his power. Varnos was certain this young man could defend himself without any issue, and his presence might even disrupt the enemy's calculations and plans.
