Krul led our procession to the capital. Thanks to the suspensions on the cart, the ride was relatively smooth, even when we were riding quickly; a normal cart at our speed would’ve been bouncing all over the place.

The downside of the suspensions was that we stood out. It was almost suspicious how level our cart sat, considering the speed at which we were traveling. Luckily, most people chalked it up to the fact that a drake was hauling the cart, a fact I was able to confirm after we gradually increased our speed while passing by several horse-drawn carts and travelers on foot.

A few people looked surprised or suspicious at first, but once they saw Krul at the end of the reins, their expressions morphed into ones of acceptance. Drakes were a rare sight to begin with, though at this point, there were quite a few people who would’ve seen Krul more than once. As long as no one scrutinized the cart itself, I’d be happy.

After riding for a while on the road, the mountain range encircling the capital became visible on the horizon. It looked as if it were another layer of defense, like an extra wall protecting the city.

I’d seen it several times before, but it was likely the first time for Samya. “Wooow!” she exclaimed in admiration.

There were mountains near the Black Forest, but the trees blocked them from view. On the shore of the lake, you might spy something that could be the peak of the mountain...maybe.

“Now that we can see the mountains, the capital should be just a little farther,” I said.

“Seriously?!” Samya yelled excitedly.

“Yeah, he’s right,” Diana cut in. Then, in a wistful tone, she added, “I haven’t been away for that long, but it feels like it’s been forever.”

Day trip or not, today could be considered a homecoming for Diana. I had no objection to her spending the whole day at the Eimoor estate if she so chose.

When I suggested it to Diana, she sighed and her voice grew pinched. “You’re kicking me out of the group?”

I backpedaled immediately in a panic. “No, no, that’s not what I—”

“Ha ha, I know. I’m just teasing,” She chuckled, and the sound had a hint of mischief in it. We’d been living together for some time now, but her joyful expression still pierced my heart. It was the elegant smile of a beautiful young lady raised in a noble household.

“But,” she continued, “I would be sad if you left me behind.”

“I get it, I get it. We’ll explore the capital together,” I promised.

“Yes, please.” She smiled again, and it was just as blinding as it had been the first time. To prevent myself from being dazzled any further, I moved toward the driver’s seat, closer to Rike, and turned to face the front.
