Sebastian didn't often get to leave the palace grounds of late. Not without good reason for it. Not that he didn't wish to, but the chaos of late meant he was kept more cooped up than normal.
But an ill blessing set him loose today. Specifically, the Divine had slipped her guard. Again.
Charlotte had mentioned it and sometimes he wondered if she were involved in these dalliances that the Divine took. Or, at least, intentionally waited to speak up until it set the whole palace guard loose to find her.
He rode casually through the streets on horseback. A flank of two guards on horses as well with him for company. After all, he'd not be allowed alone. For the same reason none of them wished Vivienne to be left alone. As bold as Antiva had gotten, none trusted they would not act in some fashion against Starkhaven. And Sebastian was no longer the only target present.
The small group came upon a young man who seemed to have attention torn about in all directions. Sebastian eased his horse to a stop nearby.

Forgive me, serah, but have you a moment?
