Monbatten's features were unmistakably foreign—thick brows, deep-set eyes, and a neatly trimmed beard on his strong jawline.

As he observed Keira, there was a flicker of familiarity in his gaze, his attention lingering on her longer than was customary.

The silence was finally broken by Jenkins, who stepped forward with a friendly smile.

"King Monbatten, it's a pleasure to meet you.

"Ah, it's you.

I never imagined that after leaving Country A, you'd settle in Crera.

How have you been?" Jenkins nodded.

"Not too bad." She then stepped aside to introduce Keira and Erin.

Ryan, seated nearby, had been prepared to make introductions but chose to remain quiet, observing instead.

"A physician this young?" Erin waved her hands.

"Not exactly.
