"Brother Henry!" Lannae called, catching his attention.
Dydra stared at the second prince in confusion. Why had the princess called him by the second prince's name? And why was the second prince standing before them when she had believed him to be the crown prince?
Henry looked up, and the sadness on his face gave way to relief when he recognized his younger sister. He immediately pulled her into an embrace, pressing her head against his chest.
"I'm glad you're safe," he whispered.
After a moment, they pulled apart, and Benjamin bowed respectfully before addressing him.
"What brings you here, if I may ask, Your Highness?"
Henry parted his lips to answer, but no words came. An awkward silence settled over them as he struggled to find an explanation for his unexpected presence.
"It's a long story," he finally admitted.
