King Liyal was receiving reports inside his Imperial study, from some of his spies that were spread abroad the Kingdoms, when the air suddenly fissured, and his son appeared before him.
"Imperial Father!" Crown Prince Kimar cried out, as he hastily saluted and knelt down with both knees.
Fixing his dark eyes on his first son, King Liyal noted the flustered state that he was trying to contain.
He raised his hand, signaling his spies, and they all saluted, then fizzled away in thick wraps of smoke.
"Speak." He commanded his son.
Cupping his hands, Crown Prince Kimar started;
"I bring grievous news from the Wind Courtyard....,"
On hearing the words, 'Wind Courtyard', King Liyal shot up from his study seat, and got out from behind his large study table.
Striding to his son decisively, he gripped his shoulders hard;
"Let's go." He said.
Instantly both of them vanished from the Imperial study room.
