Leonidas turned to Orion, grinning.
"Bro, you just swallowed a massive chunk of territory. You haven't lost your appetite for the Godforsaken Land, have you?"
Orion had made out like a bandit in this war, thanks to his brothers.
"You're joking, right?" Orion shook his head, a wry smile on his face. "After seeing what these Abyssal Rulers can do... do you really think I'd complain about having too much land?"
Leonidas threw his head back and laughed.
"So," Arthas said, cutting through the idle chatter. "Is your True Body finally breaking seclusion?"
Orion paused, his glass halfway to his mouth. He looked at the undead knight in genuine surprise.
How did he know? I haven't said a word.
Arthas didn't need telepathy to read the room. He tapped his own temple. "It's in the eyes, Orion. The confidence is back. And unless I'm mistaken, that's the first time you've cracked a real smile in ten years."
