I wake up a bit groggy.
Today is the day, king Erkais IV is coming to the castle.
Yesterday, Bastion kept telling me "Be prepared, be prepared!" like this will be the end of the world, but with certainty, I am ready for this.
I sit up in bed and start thinking of a gameplan.
I have discussed with Hannah how we are going to get me into the basement.
Now, the king has yet to arrive, so its not worth it to try now, Bastion's house staff is all over the place.
I await for the house staff to come in and give me breakfast.
Its just one more time this nonsense. Just one more time.
The door opens and Dorsey and Susan enter.
They have the breakfast trolley with them, clearly indicating that they are here for that.
"Breakfast time, pet!" Dorsey says.
I fake a mild fear, as I just want this over with.
If my serious demeanor is noticed, i'm afraid they'll think I am up to something, and then it might be harder to get into the basement.
A usual routine I have been through countless times happens: they babyfeed me all the food, treat me like a toddler, pet me, and Dorsey sniffs my neck.
"Alright, all ok!" Susan exclaims.
She stares at me with a teasing wink as she leaves with Dorsey.
Welp, now its time to wait for persmission to leave my room.
Nothing really happens.
I am mentally prepping for the infiltration of that damn basement.
No more being cooped up and mistreated!
Hannah walks in.
"Micheal, you are allowed out of your room now, remember... wait for the right moment!"
I shush her, what she said was really loud!
She blushes a bit and whispers.
"Oops... don't worry, I will remain discreet, speak to me when you see everything is clear and set, and i'll distract any guards."
She leaves and give me the wink.
And that is the wink that works.
Susan? Nope, not a chance. Hannah?
I... still feel a lot of love and affection to her...
When we get out of this mess...
No, I don't have to think of that now!
I need to stay on the plan.
I get out of my bed to go downstairs, i'll just play a game of cards or something until the king arrives.
When I arrive in the living, the place is a chaos.
All of Bastion's staff is running all over the place, prepping things, setting up things, I can hardly follow half of what is being done here.
Stinger and Dadadoo are in the couch, casually reading a book, not minding the intense situation around them.
"Brother, what is in this book?"
"Papa said we have to read it so we know how to behave when the king arrives."
"BOOOOORING!"
Wow, Dadadoo is a very disrespectful person.
