1809 Solus’ Birthday (Part 3)

"Boy, you really did it. You make small men like me dream again." Zekell snapped Lith and Solus out of it as he stared at them holding hands. "From farmer to Archmage, then dating a Princess while also keeping such a pretty girl for yourself.

"Weren't I happily married and content with my life, I would either worship you like a god or die of envy."

Lith and Solus blushed up to their ears and broke contact, but it only made Zekell have a good laugh.

"No point hiding that now. Everyone saw you sweethearts walking around. If you need anything, just let me know."

They spent the morning visiting the shops in Lutia, going back to the tower only when not even the Sage Staff that Solus wore at her neck was enough to keep her body together and the pain started.
