The next morning, Frank arrived with the artifacts at a village called Zurtborg.

He stood before a millstone that had not seen use for a while, straightening his clothes and putting down several suitcases while waiting quietly for Elizabeth's arrival.

He did not assume Aina's appearance simply because Aina did not want trouble with Elizabeth, which was why she used a go-between.
