Conrad was amused by the young boy, but he'd learn. He'd already grown in confidence while at the keep, he really was going to grow to be a fine young squire, possibly even a candidate for marriage for the Princess. Conrad was just ya know, giving advice he did a bad job following. He himself was hoping that he could stall going home for just a bit to spend a little more time with Miss Belle, provided SHE was staying in Hollow Bastion for a little while. "I am sure she would be more than happy to do it." Conrad encouraged with a smile.
"Hello Corin," the Princess greeted, also smiling at Namine. She would greet the girl too if they were in more private, but it wasn't proper while she was still a servant. Kairi liked Namine, though. She was sweet, kind, and bright, and she was excited to welcome her into her court and well...play dress up with her. Call it a favor to Riku for saving Sora, she'd take care of Namine.
Sora smiled at him. Oh right, of course they wanted to know about Riku. "Ah, I am sorry Sir le Juilette, Miss Namine. Riku did not come with me." He wanted to say that he WANTED him to come and Father said no, but he didn't want to say bad things about his Father, or imply that he was trying to disobey his parents. "He will be waiting for us at the gate." He did worry, that Corin would think the 'treatment' of Riku was unfair, and argue with the Prince that he should take Riku back to Trabia. Hopefully, Corin would trust the Prince.
