『Fealty』

This had been the first time witnessing the flight of an angel, for all the mortals in the room not part of Jack's party, as they had joined him in flight once before.

Cassandra, Lord and Lady Carmichael were in awe having seen his wings put to work. They weren't just for show, they weren't just cosmetic. They actually worked, which further amazed them.

"I would like to speak with you in private now," Jack turned his head to Lord Carmichael as the servants were beginning to enter the room.

Lord Carmichael nodded lightly and turned to his wife. "We will be going to my study to talk, be sure to set his group up with the guest rooms."

"Yes, Husband..." Lady Carmichael didn't sound all that enthused as she narrowed her sights on the other members of the party. Especially when she saw the two elves, a skeleton and multiple other women. She began thinking about whether or not this angel have a 'healthy lifestyle.'

Runa pursed her lips hearing Jack and the Lord talk, wondering what exactly Jack's approach to this was going to be. He already used Divine Fealty on three people so far. Could he be planning on usurping the Kingdom, or attaining limited control over the City?

She couldn't ignore the fact that the world outside the castle itself, was in pretty bad shape. And compared to the interior here, it looked as if this Lord and Lady were keeping all the wealth to themselves. Was that what he was going to talk about with the Lord?

Many questions were going through her mind, and none of them were going to get an answer, not right away. Runa would place her index finger against her chin as she looked towards Vivian.

Vivian was standing idly beside Kokei, looking over his boney fingers rather casually.

Kokei was just watching her, his eyes focused on the top of her head. Why was she so interested in his bones? As he listened to her as she began whispering, it sounded as if she was reciting the names of each piece of his hand and down his arm as she began pointing to each part of him.

"Princess Vivian?" Kokei asked as he slowly took his hand away from her grasp..

"Yes Kokei?" She looked up at the telepathy using skeleton.

"What're you doing?"

"Counting and naming your bones." She seemed to smile brightly up at him.

The Skeleton stared at her silently for a few seconds before saying, "Oh? By the way how old are you..." The skeleton was curious about her age, considering the fact that she was only a level ten.

"One hundred and thirteen summers," Vivian chimed as she looked side to side, her gaze wondering over towards Runa who was just now approaching.

Freezing slightly at the age and irrelevance to her level, it started to look as if she had been purposely kept weak. His fiery blue bead-like eyes moved towards Jack who was glancing over his shoulder towards him. Apparently he was listening as well, though it didn't mean much from what he'd hear.

It was likely Jack had seen what she had gone through by just using the Character Appraisal spell.

If not, it was definitely just told to him straight up. Not that Jack could hear the telepathic part of the discussion, but he could make assumptions.

Jack and the Lord began making their way out of the reception hall, towards a smaller northern door behind the throne for a visiting King.

When they reached the door, the old man would press it open with his hand, the two would find themselves in front of a U-shaped flight of stairs.
