[Light]

"A meeting?" she asks curiously. Leaning forward onto the table, she props herself up on it to look over at him, "Anything involving world domination? War? Espionage? Helping the poor?"

[~echo~]

"Well," he started proudly, "I'll let you in on a little secret- we are going to war with Agoreline," he said, stating their greatest enemy.

[Light]

"Agoreline?" she repeated, letting the name roll off her tongue, "You sure? They're pretty big aren't they?"

[~echo~]

The king nodded with a sly smile. "That they are. The more glory we will have when they are defeated," he said with a grin of determination.

[Light]

"Oh," tilting her head, she taps her heel against the ground once as she thinks, "if you say so--glory and all that,"

[~echo~]

"We have hired two hundred well-versed sorcerers to fight for us- there is no likely way we can lose."

[Light]

"I'm not worried about that," she waves her hand a bit, "But, my family and people never really interacted that much with the outside world. I heard that they're your greatest enemy or something, but why? Did they attack you or something?"

[~echo~]

"They are the crowned jewel of the east- an assassin from their kingdom murdered my father, thrusting me into the throne. Of course, I conquered most of the known world, so it wasn't all for naught," he said. "We are going to attack in a year."

[Light]

"Ah, so kinda a vendetta sorta thing," she plucks a grape from a bowl and pops it into her mouth, "You aren't going to be going with them, are you?"

[~echo~]

"Heavens, no," the king said as if it were an atrocious thought. "But I am sending my most trusted general to command our troops."

[Light]

"Eh, ah-hhh..." she nods her head, "Makes sense. The bigger you are, the more important it is to keep the king safe. Another question: can I remain in the library until your meeting is finished?"

[~echo~]

"Certainly. We have a wonderful collection of almost every tome ever made," he said with a smile. "[Guard's name] will show you to the library."

(I think I'll name the guard George. xD)

[Light]

"Then, excuse me," she pushes back from the table and stands, "Thank you for your time, King Saunsum,"

(lol sounds good)

[~echo~]

"My pleasure, Lady Ludere." George was standing guard at the door and smiled at the lady. "This way, if you please," he said while the food was taken up and brought back to the kitchen. Before they left, a few older men stepped into the dining room/ meeting room and bowed to the king.

[Light]

The silverette clasps her hands behind her back as she walks, "I feel too full after sitting and eating what I did," she smiles at the space in front of her, "There really is no such thing as proportions around here,"

[~echo~]

"Would you like to take a walk before we settle in the library? It's close so it won't be much of a walk," he said. "And walking might help make you feel better."

[Light]

"A walk, oh yes, that would be very helpful. Don't want to sit down and have a stomach ache the entire time I'm reading," she strays to the side, looking outside before continuing on.

[~echo~]

George nodded and followed loosely. "Very good, My Lady."

[Light]

Ludere stretches her arms above her head and pops her back, "Lu-de-re," she insists, "No ones ever addressed me as 'My Lady' as much as people around here do,"

[~echo~]

George looked a little taken aback but quickly nodded. "Of course, La- uh, Ludere. My apologies."
