Ren prayed that they would leave him alone.
He should have known better.
The moment Lily and her companions spotted him standing near the Guest Pavilion, they changed direction and headed straight toward him.
Ren quietly sighed beneath his hood.
Of all the players in the Fey Realm, why did it have to be them?
He had barely managed to enjoy a moment of peace.
"Aren't you Ren, the organizer of this event?" Kylie asked when they reached him.
Her tone was friendly enough, and there was no trace of recognition in her eyes.
Ren studied her for a moment.
Apparently, she had no idea that he was the same Ren they had encountered in the Pink Salty Desert.
That was convenient.
Without Pii beside him, he apparently wasn't nearly as recognizable. The tiny lizard had a strange habit of making him far more memorable than he wanted to be.
Perhaps their previous encounter had simply faded from their memories.
