 Ellis jumped in Ezran's arms . They hugged tight. The councelor gave a strange look to Ezran . Ezran let go of the hug.
Councelor: King Ezran, can we talk ?
Ezran: Yes , why ?
Councelor : You can't be with that farmer girl . You have to marry a princess!
Ezran: Why ? My dad married the person that he loved . I am the king now .
Councelor : I understand that, but King Harrow was an exception.
Ezran: I want to be alone for a moment. Please.
Councelor : As you wish , Your Highness.

Callum: Where is Ez ?
Councelor: The King wishes to be alone .
Rayla: What did you said to him ? You know that you blew up his happiness ?
Councelor : I don't take babysitting advice from a elv .
Rayla : * Keep calm Rayla , You know you can't kill him . *
Callum: Rayla, are you ok ?
Rayla : Yes, I just want to kill someone, you ?
Callum: Yeahh... I am going to stay with Ez ... Can you stay with Ellis ?

Callum was concerd .
Callum: What happend , Ez ?
Ezran: Nothing happened ... I am fine .
Callum: No, you are not fine, what did he said to you?
Ezran: Nothing, I just have a headache.
Callum: You seemed to be fine this morning.
Ezran: Why are you worrying about me right now? You didn't seem to care for 9 years.
Callum: Ez, I do care for you.
Ezran: Oh.. I am sure about that .
Callum: Alright, I am going to let you rest .

Callum walked out of his room and hugged Rayla .
Rayla: Is he ok ?
Callum: No , he's not . He is sad. He wanted to be alone and I respected his wish.
Rayla: You are a great brother, Callum after he gets some rest, I'm sure he will be Ezran that we know and love . He is overwhelmed with his new title and the duties he has now. Don't worry my little love human.
Callum: Thanks Rayla, I really needed that .

The chef : Prince Callum!!! You are 24!!
Callum: Sorry, I didn't steal anything! Anyway you are baking these for us .
Rayla: Are you ok, Ellis ?

Ellis: Oh.... yeah.... I get it now..
