Tristan, who knew Gara was pregnant, immediately panicked. He feared something had happened to the baby.
Gara could feel it too. Something was happening to his pregnancy.
But it wasn't something bad.
He was nearly ten months along. It was time.
"Uncle Tristan, please prepare an isolated room. It's time," he said, clutching Tristan's clothes.
Tristan did not ask further questions. He had a feeling as well. He immediately turned and hurried outside.
"What's going on?" Ramun, the only one who knew nothing, asked in confusion.
Tristan looked at Gara. It was not his place to decide whether to reveal this secret.
"Come with us," Gara murmured, struggling to endure the pain.
Then he glanced at Tristan. "Here."
Tristan nodded and quickly stepped out.
Ramun grew even more confused. Gara told him to come along, yet told Tristan "here."
From outside, Ramun heard Tristan issuing firm orders to the knights to guard the room and allow no one inside.
A moment later, Tristan returned.
