Titanion Realm, on the border between the human kingdom and the former dwarven Tribe.
Grand Duke William and Prince Theodore met, flanked by two other nobles of earldom rank, both of whom were William's trusted men.
"Your Grace," Prince Theodore said with a perfect bow. "I am here at the King's command, to serve the realm and help purge this traitor."
William had no complaints about Prince Theodore. In terms of strength and character, the prince was flawless. He was politically astute but operated with his own firm principles. As heir to the kingdom, he was beyond reproach.
"Your Highness," Grand Duke William said, gesturing first to himself, then to the two earls behind him, and finally to the knights standing guard in the distance. "We all need you here. And you need the glory this campaign will bring."
