The Bastogne Castle, Two Hours after Frozen Bracelet went airborne

Rokari, the Supreme Commander of the Adventurers Expeditionary Fleet, was taken into the castle by the Bastogne Knights for an audience. She got word from her intercom that Frozen Bracelet was successfully repaired and went airborne again. With the flagship is now secure, Rokari and the adventurers can focus on their task of salvaging the Astral Ships and making contact with the Kingdom of Bastogne.

When she's headed to the palace, Rokari saw the Bastogne's people, surprised at their races. It seems there is plenty of mixed breeding between humans, elves, and dwarves. This information can be handy since Alicia wants to study mixed breed further. She wants to study their genes and how long they have been stranded on this land.

Judging by the city walls, it looks like the Kingdom of Bastogne was always in a difficult situation. Initial reports from the recon already support this finding, considering the Pandemonium Continent was based on survival of the fittest in a more brutal way. If it was at the Celestina Empire, probably the Main Council will always stay at the front line, extending it year by year to ensure the citizens are well-fed and always ready for war against the demons.

Arriving at the audience room, she saw the nobles and ministers. It would seem that the audience was still ongoing, and she was the next one. Some of them are anxious since they saw Rokari as a child due to her appearance.

Arriving in front of the current king, Rokari bows down before him. She was wearing her signature adventurers uniform, not too fancy, but it can be considered an insolent to his majesty in the nobles' eyes.

"Supreme Commander of the Celestina Adventurers Expeditionary Fleet, Rokari Migurdia greets Your Majesty."

"Stand up."

Rokari stood up, looking at the man in around 30s. It seems that he ascends to the throne less than five years ago, judging by the experience.

"I have heard the case from the messenger. What is the purpose of your visit?"

"I'm here to conduct an expedition to explore the Pandemonium Continent. The Main Council assigns me and at least a thousand adventurers from the Celestina Empire and a hundred of the Topa Kingdom to explore this land. After five months of preparation, we set out to explore with the objective is to make contact with any settlement we find during our expedition. Unfortunately, our flagship got hit by a magnetic storm and grounded near one of your settlements. For that, I offer a sincere apology."

Rokari stood up, and this time she bows deeply to the King. The King and the nobles were astonished to look at how Rokari behave. He nodded in acknowledgment, and he grants her a pardon.

"I accept your apology, Miss Rokari. I'm also rude to you from the start. I'm Lazare Bastogne, the current King of the Bastogne Kingdom. I'm grateful to have you here. I would like to know the country you are coming from. Perhaps we can talk about this matter in private."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Inside the private room, Lazare Bastogne, with several officials and Rokari, held some talk.
