[h3]---CANDAELN---[/h3]

Jarde followed all the commotion and saw a group of knights enter Candaeln. He knew they were part of the Iron Rose Knights, probably the main contingent even, because he saw Fanilly Danbalion. He paused for a moment to confirm what he saw but there was no mistaking it. It was her, the noble girl from his childhood, all grown up and in charge of an esteemed order of knights. He knew that they both had gotten far in their lives. But their positions didn't change. He was beneath her and probably does not know he exists.

As the knights conversed with one another, Jarde just stood by and watched with a smile. He may be unnoticed but that was fine with him. Helping out Fanilly and the Iron Rose Knights was enough for him.
