At the garden, Theo sees Natalie deSonne still sleeping on the bench, and a recently arrived Eric Stone having a mild drink at a small bar which was run by a beautiful woman in a cozy corner of the Zenarch. They mostly served tea and Kalliste Gold, but he had opted for the strong drinks reserves.
Kallisti Eric! I didn't know you were here! I would have invited you to the meeting. Natalie is asleep, so it was just me and Pope Bretonnias.
He shook Eric's hand and then pointed to the corridor that led to the hangar.
They are leaving now, but if we hurry, we might catch them before they board their ships and I'll introduce them to you.
Eric nodded and they quickly walked after the Phoenix Zoners, who were just turning the corner.
