"Our boss's family is originally from Silverlake City," Carol explained, "but he's immigrated to Westenmar now. He just brought the young master back to pay respects to his ancestors, but we'll probably be heading back in a few days." Carney nodded. "Well, that's a shame." Carol sighed, a little helpless.

The sight made Carol's heart swell with emotion.
James and Carney watched, their pride unmistakable.
