- Inar, - Nifaël responded to the warm embrace with the same and kissed the air near both of his cheeks, - I see that a comfortable life hasn't made you lazy at all. I'm incredibly glad to see you, old friend.
He dabbed at the corners of his eyes, though it was more for show than genuine emotion.
- Allow me to officially introduce my... - he turned to the Sorceress for a moment and then addressed the host again. - No, no, not my wife. My soul is still too young to put down roots, haha! This is Linderia Orphidia - one of our trusted companions and an extremely talented specialist in her field.
He gestured respectfully, introducing them to each other.
- Inar Anluki, my old friend and fellow countryman, a man of art and action. One of those people I'm never ashamed to be acquainted with, - he smiled broadly again. - And the dearest Leia.
When Raphael introduced her, the girl bowed in a respectful greeting.
— Leia... — Inar patted the elf on the head and continued the conversation with the guests. — I apologize for my...
— Wife. — The elf finished for him. — Second half, the love of my life!
— Yes, yes, exactly, - he waved his hand, - please, prepare some tea for us. — While the girl got to work, Inar apologized again. — Anyway, Nisan, I'm glad for our belated reunion, and, Madam Orphidia, it's a pleasure to meet you.
He gestured for them to take a seat on the cushions prepared near the low table, while Leia finished preparing the tea.
