The King smiled at the children seated before him as a warmth of satisfaction swelled in his chest.
Yesterday had been tedious with the numerous noble families entering this Palace grounds but today, he had made it a point to spend some time with the youngsters.
His ministers were spreading the word as per his instructions so King Ophire had to only wait and see how the nobles react to the information they would receive soon enough.
In the meantime, he wished to gauge the younger ones of his family.
"What are your thoughts about yesterday's events?" The noble ruler of this Kingdom inquired as his blue eyes scanned those around him.
The King's only sibling, Prince Draco had been looking at the official documents he had received from the Butler in the Roschester fief when he heard this question.
