All of a sudden, Delita saw none other than Lord Nabradia standing next to his sister. He was about to note the similarities when Ashelia spoke his name.

He dared not say anything, for he knew of nothing appropriate to say. Instead, he just stood silently trying to take stock of the situation. His own sister all but forgotten, his thoughts turned to consoling the princess.

As her friend, he waited for as long as she required - his only movement consisting of shifting his gaze from Lord Nabradia back to his sister.
