Through his grandmother's insights, Rain discovered that the enemies recognized the strategic advantage of controlling Tristan. Its capture would not only grant them a strong position from which to launch further attacks but also disrupt the supply lines and weaken human resistance in the region.
Rain realized that understanding the enemy's focus on Tristan was crucial for formulating effective counterstrategies. He came to appreciate the value of having a network of merchants who could gather valuable intelligence from various sources. The merchants' ability to travel across different regions allowed them to observe and report on enemy movements, troop deployments, and other vital information.
This network of merchants became a valuable asset in acquiring timely and accurate intelligence about the enemy's plans and actions. It provided a broader perspective and helped Rain and his family to make informed decisions regarding their own strategies and movements.
Before long, Leiro joined them and then checked things again; he didn't think that he was truly seeing his daughter and grandkids. He didn't say that, but it was clear that he wished that he could have helped them sooner, but moving to the capital was tough, and it was too risky for everyone.
"Luana should have updated you about everything by now; you did well coming here with four kids," Meiro said. "Leave the rest to us, we will bring your husband here, and then we will think of something to avoid problems after the war."
"I didn't do even half of the work, Rain here is very talented; if it weren't for him, we still would be at the capital," Leiah said while messing with Rain's hair and making him wonder why everyone liked to do that. "He can use magic, and he is very level-headed; he wants to bring back his father as well, with his magic; that should be possible."
"... We will need to do some tests for that, but that can wait," Meiro said while studying his weird quiet grandson. "Just rest until night, and then we will move you all to our house while no one is aware of it."
"Thank you," Rain said.
Rain sat at the breakfast table with his grandparents, a sense of calm and familiarity enveloping the room. The morning sunlight filtered through the windows, casting a warm glow upon the scene.
His grandparents, with gentle smiles etched on their faces, engaged in light conversation, their voices filled with affection and care. They shared stories from their past, recounting fond memories and imparting wisdom acquired over the years. Rain listened attentively, cherishing these moments of connection and the opportunity to learn from their experiences.
The table was adorned with a modest spread of home-cooked delicacies. Crispy bacon, scrambled eggs, and steaming bowls of porridge graced the table, a testament to his grandmother's culinary skills. The plates were adorned with vibrant fruits and preserves, adding a burst of color to the scene.
"Your mother said that you are good with magic. Was she boasting a bit too much, or is that true?" Meiro asked.
"There is only one way to find out," Rain replied while he was eating.
"That air of confidence, you sure look like your father," Luana said while showing a gentle smile.
That was a praise if anything, but considering that Rain knew his father more than them, perhaps not so much. He was too honest in front of him, after all.
