Fenric entered Lyria's house for the first time. He had planned to drop her off with Thorne, who opened the door and stared at them with wide, curious eyes. Fenric felt the need to explain. "Hello. I am your neighbor from next door. I happened to meet Lyria at the bar and decided to bring her home after she got drunk."
He tried to hand Lyria over to Thorne, but she clung to him tightly, mumbling, "No, handsome... don't go."
Thorne witnessed his daughter's shamelessness for the first time and felt a wave of embarrassment. He said loudly, "Lyria, sweetheart, let's go inside."
Lyria disagreed immediately. "I will go with Handsome!"
