"Ugh, that was exhausting."
I plop down on the sofa as soon as we're back to the palace.
"You can say that again. I've never seen that many people together at once."
"And the buildings... human cities are so different from what I've imagined."
"Right? The homes here are so big... It feels like a completely different world."
I completely forgot that while Yaci had already seen human cities, albeit only in the dead of night and during high-risk missions, it was the first time Kwarah and Yawarete had been outside.
For someone who spent their whole life in the beastkin camps in the Barren Wilds, the sight of the buildings of the capital must've been astonishing.
"Well, now beastkin aren't under the threat of slavery anymore, in this kingdom, we can do a walk later."
"Aurea, we have no time for that. There's a war coming."
"It's coming, but it's not here yet. We could use this little time we have, but I see your point, Kwarah."
