The Overlord's Court

"I'm sorry sir. I misunderstood your question the first time." Zerez appoligised. "She seems to be getting used to it, after having come to court only a few months ago."

Kyruna looked up when she heard the door open...and then... "Good morning, Milord!" she tried to stand, curtsy/bow at the same time and ended up falling over the bench.

saiah sweatdropped, before hurrying over. "Morning Kyruna...you ok?"

"O-of course Milord..." Kyruna said, pushing herself back up. "I'm sorry, Milord!"

"It's fine," Magnus replied kindly. He wasn't the type to get angry with his subordinates over things like that. "Doing better than I am then. If you'll excuse, I have to get breakfast and meet with the Overlord."

Zerez saluted once more, before returning to his standing position.

"Don't worry about it, just keep that pretty face of yours safe." The Overlord said, smiling at the younger woman.

OOC: Overlord's a flirt. :L

"Stand easy," Magnus replied wearily, moving to the food hall to get breakfast. No doubt he would get an earful from someone for not going to prayers ever.

Kyruna felt her face heat up a little bit. "Of course, Milord!"

OOC: I have to say this. This guy, is my favourite of your characters now Book.

Lucrezia was at the table dining when she saw Magnus enter. "Good morning, Ser."

"Good morning, Milady," the head of the army inclined his head at royalty.

"Good, now please," He said, taking her hand and kissing it. "continue as you were."

"Please sit. There is quite a spread this morning if I do say so myself." Lucrezia answered, motioning to the food set out on the table.

Kyruna's face grew even brighter, as she pushed herself up. "O-of course, M-milord!" she said in a higher pitched voice. Is...is a royal actually...somewhat flirting with me!?

Isaiah just mentally chuckled at her face, finding it slightly cute. "I'll leave you to your buisness then..." Isaiah said, before turning to head towards one of the book shelves.

Magnus did as asked, surveying the food available. He wasn't used to feasts. Even as a general he had taken little more than rations, and, stuck without using much energy didn't give him much of an appetite.

"Such is the wealth of our country, I suppose," he said, aware he had to mind his words in court.

Kyruna curtseyed again, and sat back down in front of her pile of books. Going back to studying some light magic spells.

Lucrezia gave a small laugh. "It seems a bit much for just a few generals and noblemen I suppose. Brother- I mean Lord Isaiah doesn't usually get a chance to dine on it with him being so busy..."

He appears older... and a military man. Only a military man by the looks of that garb. The girl thought.

Isaiah took out one of his fathers old journals, having found info on his fathers early days as an Overlord quite insightful.

"It's to be expected. We are at war, after all," Magnus replied agreeably, his face unreadable. "I mentored him for a while, when your father was alive, and he is rather dedicated."

"Did you know my Lord Father?" Lucrezia asked in a practised soft tone.

All was quiet in the library for a little bit...until...

"Owowowowow!"

Kyruna's mountain of books had fallen on her.

"I served under him, yes," Magnus replied. The Princess was an enigma to him, he found her rather hard to read. Perhaps better at politics than her brother, he reflected.

Isaiah quickly rushed over to the girl, and quickly moved the ooks from ontop of her, before extending a hand to help her up. "You ok, Kyruna?"

"...Mommy, I see the stars..." Kyruna said in a childish voice, most of the books had landed on her head.

"I see..." Lucrezia seemed to appear in a slight daze, before her lady in waiting entered with a curtsy.

"Excuse me Milady, but it's time for your lessons."

"Oh, lovely. More hours of my life lost to Porf. Kirkland droning on and on." The girl said in an exasperated tone, before getting out of her seat. She had finished her breakfast. Before exiting she turned to Magnus. "I hope I may talk to you again sometime int he near future."
