Ken and Lyman headed back to see her mother, but as they opened the door and walked in, they saw a blonde male elder there. He was an adult elf, dressed like royalty, and beside him was the best that they had met, Leo.
Ken watched as the expression of Luna darkened the very moment she saw them. She tried to hide it, but her eyes betrayed her. She walked in with her steps now heavier than normal, her eyes locked ahead.
"Greetings, Luna," the man said with a nod, only for her to turn and glare at him. "You'll address me as the young mistress, uncle." She was blunt with it, her tone telling them she was not here to play.
He was Leo's father, her mother's brother. Normally that would mean family, but not in this case, as she knew what sort of man he was and what he could do.
"Luna, don't be rude to your uncle," her mother said, trying her hardest to ensure that she looked calm and collected.
