Yeah. Ideally, things will pick up right where we left off.
[He has people who can take over for him should he disappear or die, but Hayame? She had the village depending on her. If she can't go back, then and there when she left...
He doesn't want to think of it, either. He laces their hands together, lifts her hand to press a gentle kiss to her knuckles; an easier thing to do given their difference in height. Were they here for any period of time, he might have been more honest with the guards rather than treating this, once again, as a secret, but in the interests of time, they don't have that luxury.
The hallway leading to the guest rooms looks out onto a courtyard with a fountain, giving a more quiet and serene feeling separate from the rest of the palace.]
You can use the guest quarters here. [He lets go of her hand, indicates one of the doors.] One of the servants will help you get changed and give you advice on what to wear in the heat, but there's enough selection you should be able to pick out something you like, too.
[Receiving guests from Fódlan soon made it apparent that having clothes available for foreign guests was a wise idea, if only because the dry heat could be too much for them in their own garb. If Hayame is from a similar climate, he reasons she'd likely benefit from such advice, too.]
I'll do a little more searching in the other guest rooms while you get ready, so how about we meet at the fountain when you're done?
