Springerest Pavilion, Quintana Residence, Draconia.

Lord Quintana, Casper, sat in his grand chair, silently staring at an old photograph of the Eight Kings from 30 years ago.

“Dad!” Jethro’s voice was gentle, yet filled with concerns he entered the study. “Are you thinking about your old friends again?”

Casper slowly placed the photo down, letting out a soft sigh. “Yes. After drinking the Snow Dragon Pool water brought by Master Ramsey, I somehow managed to escape death again.”

He paused, his eyes distant. “But I know… my time is running out.

“People my age tend to look back on the past.

“I long for those days of passion and ambition,” he murmured.

Jethro sat beside his father, covering him with a blanket. He struggled to speak, his throat tight with emotion, unable to find words for a long time.

Recently, several of the kings had passed away, and many issues–both internal and external–had caused

unrest.

Draconia seemed heavy with frustration, and Casper felt like there was no one he could share it with.

Casper gently patted his son’s arm and stayed silent for a while before speaking. “Jethro, are you carrying a lot of unsaid thoughts these days?”

Jethro nodded, his voice barely above a whisper. “Dad, Ill admit, I feel uneasy.

“There have been so many changes at the top recently, and I don’t fully understand them.

“To be honest, I’m not happy with many of the decisions being made.”

He let out a deep breath, as if releasing some built–up frustration. “But I won’t say more. It just feels … suffocating.

“Dad, there are things I’ll leave unsaid. Just focus on getting better,” he said quietly.

Casper slowly sat up and met his son’s confused gaze. After a long silence, he placed a hand on Jethro’s

shoulder.

“Jethro, you’re still as loyal as you were when you were younger!

“That’s why I didn’t send you to the military back then.

“With your nature, you would’ve made quite an impact in the army..

“Even after all these years in foreign affairs, you’re still as sharp as ever.
