The walls of the palace feel warmer than earlier, the hallways more comforting as the palace staff stand in neat lines to catch a glimpse of their soon to be queen, huge smiles displayed on their welcoming faces. Viri smiles back, wholeheartedly, stops to bow deeply to appreciate their appearance just to see her. The surprised gasps from the staff doesn't go unnoticed by her.
It has been half an hour since they arrived at the palace. Jimin had met them at the entrance, eyes gleaming with joy as he had welcomed them back before leading them down the hallway, claiming that the staff wanted to see their soon to be queen. The princess would be lying if she says she wasn't expecting the emperor to receive them along with the others and when she didn't catch any sight of him, she was definitely not disappointed. Not even in the slightest.
After the warm welcome from the staff, Jimin takes lead to give a detailed tour of the palace to Viri, placing the crown back into the crown room on their way, with the intention to bring it out for the coronation ceremony only. It is only Viri following the Royal advisor around, Yoongi and Hyunjay having abandoned them long back to take some rest. Jimin keeps chattering about all the places he shows to Viri as the princess listens intently, genuinely interested in collecting every information the older is throwing her way.
An hour later, they find themselves in the king's garden, the previous memories of that night comes flooding back as they step into the now reconstructed area. It had been severely damaged after the fight and had to be rebuild, Jimin explains to her and Viri finds herself with a sense of relief that no permanent damage had happened to the place.
She loves the serenity the garden offers and knows the king loves it too, so it's good to know the place is revived. While Jimin further explains about the reconstruction, Viri finds herself acting on impulse.
"Sorry to interrupt you Jimin-ssi but where exactly is the emperor?" She immediately regrets her impulsive question because one it came out more rude than she intended it to be and two, now there was absolute silence between the pair. Jimin turns around slowly, eyes searching for Viraina's own before letting out a snicker. Before he can say something the girl rushes to explain, "I mean I just- I was just wondering where the emperor might be since I didn't catch a sight of him-"
"I understand, my princess. In fact it's irresponsible of me to not inform you earlier but his majesty had some urgent work come up right before you arrived and had to leave for that. He will be back soon and has asked me to request you to wait for him here, if you would want to?"
