Atlas exchanged a glance with Luna and Ember. Luna's expression mirrored his own, slightly confused, maybe even guilty. She probably felt bad for pulling Atlas into this mess. But before the silence could linger, Ember let out a soft giggle between them.
"We won," she said lightly. "Let's celebrate a little. At least now we know that the Fae girl's fate will be much better on our side, right?"
Luna nodded gently, a small smile forming on her lips. "Without Atlas, that wouldn't have been possible."
"It's alright," Atlas replied quickly. "Most of the people under me usually follow my decisions without much debate. But you, Luna, you're different. As another Lord in this alliance, you have the freedom to act on your own. And that's helped me see things from a different perspective about how we should handle situations like this. Honestly, it's been a positive influence on me."
Ember grinned. "You two really are opposites, huh?"
