Sarena had paid them a surprise visit, but James wasn’t surprised. The loud c***k was a clear giveaway. He was happy that she couldn’t appear directly inside the awning. Which clearly meant that his barriers against magic were holding on well. It also meant that Miro and his half-naked men hadn't suspected anything magical in his surroundings. He felt relieved. Sarena never did anything without a reason and he would know the reason soon enough. All through his training period, he had learnt to wait. He offered her a drink. Handing her the Chamomile tea and Kirra a strong long black, he poured a whiskey on the rocks for himself. He had a feeling that Sarena being here wasn't great news. He knew he would need that stiff drink. He could already feel the anxiety building up around him.
