The refugees from Tar Sequinus were also received with open arms and condolences. However, Nieldun had Meriel watch the interactions between the refugees from Tar Sequinus and the ones from Wolastra to see if their accommodations needed some space in between. The two nations had some bad blood between them. The soldiers were led to the quartermasters to get their equipment. Nieldun was surprised at how willing King Fabricus was to send soldiers to assist Wolastra or aid in a crusade against the Shadows. Fabricus was certainly a better man than his father. He faced outright genocide against his people by a foe with a depressing numeric advantage yet he was keeping his cool and being brave and noble. Nieldun, with Queen Marianna's in tow, went to greet King Fabricus's family with a similar greeting. Once both were following, he led them to his citadel and showed them the guest rooms where they would be staying for however long they needed to. [i]Dear King Fabricus, The feast's premature ending was of course understandable. I will protect your family as if they were my own. I thank you for your blessing of luck. May both Grimnos the Planner and Magrim the Valiant watch over you as you fight for your homeland. Best of luck and may your sword hand never fail you.[/i]
