[Third Person].
Soon, the news of the Fae fortifying the Great Wall reached the Carter Residence.
But it was not the Wall that unsettled Gabriel. It was something else entirely.
His mother was in Stormveil, and she had not informed him. Not a word had been sent. No message. There was absolutely no attempt to reach out, despite him being her only son.
Gabriel sat in silence after hearing it, his expression slowly hardening as disappointment settled in. For all the distance that had grown between them over the years, he had not expected this level of disregard.
Without delay, he called for parchment and ink.
The letter he wrote was brief, but it clearly conveyed his grievance. He questioned her silence, her decision to come to Stormveil without informing him, and her refusal to acknowledge him despite their blood ties.
Once finished, he sealed it and had it sent to the palace immediately.
