Unfortunately, it was too early for anyone to retire from the ball. Especially Cass who wanted to get more done for the day before he left. He'd barely been at the ball but Gideon could not remain at the ball in the state that he was. Edgar offered to bring him to the carriage and then come back, but it was Byron who put his foot down.
"No. I'll do it. I can move easily through the palace without drawing attention. If you left it would make a bigger issue. My Lord is non-negotiable." Byron said and Cass flinched. He knew that was true, but hey! That was rude. Byron's Mom laughed, along with the other fairies.
"Hey, you can't be mad at him for not being well taken care of. Be nice to your Lord, Byron." They teased and Byron huffed. Gideon was sitting up at least, and he looked a lot better. He hadn't thrown up for at least 5 minutes so he was doing remarkably well. After they had prompted him to throw up, he hadn't stopped until now.
