Being evil might not be that bad

"Entering, the duke of Helsing, the archduke of Alfeim- his Excellency Daarc Green and his retinue!" A voice announced as we entered the throne room: it was dramatic if nothing. I was kind of getting sick of all this. 

Wait, didn't that herald just say 'his excellency?' Wasn't that only reserved for the emperor of Alfeim or were high-born nobles also addressed that way? Alisa wasn't here, so I didn't have any reason to care for all that. 

I had my emblem, the one I'd gotten from Lianne, perfectly visible on my chest. It wasn't glued or anything, so I had to make sure it didn't fall off from my movements. It was mostly just for show though. 

For a human country, it seemed pretty well handled. The throne room of Helsing wasn't even worthy of comparison. I'd expect no less from the strongest of all the human nations.
