Because it was already evening by the time Landen arrived at Dragon Tooth City, and after reporting several times over in the Royal Palace, it was time to eat. As a court viscount, Landen naturally had no chance to dine merrily with the kingdom's upper ranks, but His Majesty Dusen was very satisfied that Landen had successfully kept Girislav blocked east of Lokirav Pass, and even more satisfied that Landen could personally come back to report on the situation on the night of the 28th.
