Anathia was staring out the window reading an old historical book to catch her up on the 300 years that she's lost

"Huh, So after the a fucked up excuse for a war now named 'the night of a thousand lives' somehow a magical event made 5 other pieces of land equivalent to this one somehow merged together with ours."

"That is correct milady" responded Kanel. Kanel was sanding diagonally behind the witch for 3 hours as she was reading, making sure to bring her tea and snacks once in a while.

"Huh, so Davinky and 4 others are each looking after one piece of land?"

"That is correct" Kanel sounded the same as he did the first time.

"And what, they just left one piece of land there?"

"That land is owned by the King Arthur, but is currently not used"

"What, was he waiting for me to come back so he can gift it to me? Probably, the guy was always been somewhat calculating, especially when it came to saving his tail or getting what he wants." she shuts her book with a thud and stands up.

"Let's give that dumbass a visit, if I'm right, he's expecting me right about now. Kanel, get me a little somethin somethin that says I'm mad, and I'm gonna fuck you up but at the same time I'm fine and in a perfectly well state" Anathia says as she struts out of the room

"Yes Milady"

While Anathia was planning a surprise that is also not that much of a surprise since both sides assume that a reunion will take place on this night, King Arther was busy in the palace of Grochica, picking out one of the finest red wines to drink. 

After analysing each one, he finally picks one after staring at each one for a total for over one hour. He then turns to look at his assistant with an expression of satisfaction 

"Tim, this one will be it for today. Get two glasses and bring it up to my room."

"Yes sire"

King Arthur takes his time pacing to his chamber, humming to himself as every maid that comes across him bows at a ninety degree angle. The king stayed sitting in front of the window of his room, admiring the night's sky as small gusts of wind blow into his room.

"Sire, I have your wine"

Arthur looks at Tim who was at the entrance of the chamber, not daring to move forward and smiles with his eyes nearly shut together. He approaches Tim and takes a glass that was readily poured, Arthur waved Tim off and reproached the window while taking a sip of his self chosen wine.

He sighs at the night sky as he does every night, looking directly at Mt Haku as his window introduced that exact view. His eyes wandered and landed on the guards below, and one especially who was yawning and clearly tired.

"They work hard, but they really won't be able to hold back anyone who's an actual threat" He laughs. If any other saw him, they'd think he was amazing himself with some self to self conversation. But only him and the person who was sitting in an armchair to the far right in the dark, holding a glass of wine, will know that it was the start of a 300 year reunion.

"yeah, well that is just a you problem, don't blame them"

Anathia swirled the wine in her glass around before taking a sip, "Good wine"

"Thank you my old friend, it's 150 years old. Saved it just for such an occasion." Responded Arthur, his eyes never leaving the scenery of the night view.
