“Wait!”the guard called out as Apollo stepped beside Temple.“Thought you might stay a while!Chat for a bit!”
Apollo raised a hand in farewell.“It’s been excellent knowing you, but I’m busy at the moment.”They didn’t try to sneak out past the wall.They simply ran.

“No.We can’t?—”
“To see the king about my wife.”
