"Abduction?"
Caso's voice rose as he spurred his horse, driving forward with Count Arsene and the guards behind him, toward the nobles of the western Kingdom.
"Why don't you let me return among you? Your king comes and goes freely, when was there ever such an abduction in this world?" Caso's tone was particularly high-pitched. As the Cantadar Crown Prince who had assisted his father in governing for many years, he was never cowardly. Seeing the turmoil as an opportunity to showcase his mediation skills, his desire to perform suddenly became overwhelming.
Perhaps it was the king Caso's words and actions that had an effect, or perhaps it was the presence of Count Arsene that quelled the suspicious and anxious Cantadar nobles amidst the chaos.
The unrest blocking the main road in front of the West City Post District seemed to be calming down.
