Mackenzie knew what he was thinking just from his look and gave a soft smile. "Emmanuel, you don't have to worry so much. It will all come together."

Terence was lying relaxed in a chair inside a room in the mansion with his eyes shut, desiring to kick back and enjoy his remaining years after a lifetime of toil. However, Mackenzie came in silently.
"You're here." His eyes remained closed as if expecting her.

Emmanuel is the war god of the Northern Region, so his being with you might ensure your safety."
