Enjoy~

              •~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•

General Pixis is certainly taking his time. Maybe he's trying unnerve the Prince?

"I've been sat here for the entire day..."

I've been standing. The Prince sunk deeper into his throne with a loud sigh, removing his crown and placing it onto his lap. General Pixis wrote in his letter saying he'd arrive around mid morning... its now eight o' clock at night.

I wonder if something bad happened? I leant forward, placing my hands onto my knees as a low sigh escaped my lips. Standing all day is rather tiresome...

"You have my permission to briefly sit down. I'll give you five minutes."

I slowly lowered myself beside the Prince's throne, crossing my legs. It feels a little strange, but I'm glad to be resting my legs... I suspect five minutes will pass quickly.

"Where are your damn manners, foreigner?"

I tensed up; please don't make me stand up as punishment... I bowed my head as the Prince cast his steel eyes to the side, looking down upon me. I clenched my fists mumbling:

"Thank you... for letting me sit down."

The Prince crossed his legs and leant his chin onto his palm.

"Better."

So cruel... the Prince suddenly tensed upon hearing multiple sets of footsteps approach the heavy marble doors. It's them... I can tell from the poisonous aura... I quickly rose to my feet, placing my fingertips over the hilt of my sword. The marble doors slowly opened as the General walked in - followed by Reiner.

"I apologise for being so late... Your Majesty..."

General Pixis wore a traditional Chi robe, the noticeable blue rope tied around his waist. Reiner stood behind the General, his eyes studying the Prince - assessing him for skill. Reiner looks so forceful... wearing such a traditional servant uniform... I haven't seen one for such a long time.

"Don't worry yourself General. It's a pleasure to meet you."

The Prince stood up from his throne, walking down the first few steps of his red carpet. I cautiously followed behind him, meeting the darkened eyes of Reiner.

"I mean no harm at all... I'm here for a friendly visit...that shaved boy donated money to the rebuilding of Chi. I wanted to thank you properly."

Reiner tensed up as I bowed to the both of them; a formal way to greet someone from Chi. General Pixis chuckled as he slowly returned my greeting, placing his hand onto his back to ease the pain of bowing... seems he's aged quite a bit...

"How polite of you..."

Reiner bowed also, lowering his head for a few seconds. So intense. Reiner's bow looks so intimidating.

"I'm unaware of your countries' traditions. Do not mistake it for impoliteness."

General Pixis laughed, lightly patting Reiner's shoulder with a glowing smile.
