Barov looked at the Prince, waiting for hi, the next fewwe should do is safeguard our loved ones and family members” What was more important was the fact that the 2nd Prince could kidnap these people to threaten them, now, if he wanted to maintain Border Town’s administration and financial affairs functionality, his assistant minister was indispensable Roland sipped his tea and then continued, “You and Carter, as well as your subordinates should all write theuards deliver the, then they will arrange for them to take shelter in other towns”
