The carriage rattles to a stop on Elphegort's cobblestones, the sudden stillness a relief after the sickening sway. Inside, Princess Riliane fusses over her speech, her words a low, frantic murmur. Beside her, Allen is silent, his blond hair damp against his pale forehead, his knuckles white where they grip the seat. He swallows hard, pushes the door open, and staggers out into the cool air. With a shallow bow toward you, his voice strained, he manages, 'Please, watch her for a moment.' Then he turns and hurries away, vanishing toward the promise of a quiet bathroom, leaving you alone with the preoccupied princess.
