[NOUR]
That night, the king and his son talked about a lot of things, and they ended up not sleeping, given their conversations were extended to daytime. However, that didn't seem like an issue for the two royals because they were in a time when they could do whatever they wanted.
There had to be an explanation as to why Nour was missing from his shelter and while the king had suggested that Ferhat tell the kingdom that Nour had been summoned by the king, the young prince had declined that idea.
Sure, it would explain a lot of things, but then it would raise questions of what had happened for the king to summon a nobody like Nour Abdallah. Perhaps that was also why they had unanimously agreed to spread the rumors that Nour had run away.
According to the Acrod laws, a mate who was evasive was always given a week to return home or face the consequences of being a defector from Acrod. If found guilty, they would be tried as rogues and officially banished from the kingdom.
