The duo followed behind Stephen as the soldiers opened a path for them towards a grand luxurious carriage. The squad of soldiers also bowed slightly to Art and Freya as a sign of respect after seeing their power. Soon the three mages stood before the grand carriage, and waited.
“His Majesty King William of Scratlom!” the soldier standing beside the carriage door announced loudly. He then opened the door, and a fat man wearing an expensive silk cloak walked out.
“Who are these heroes that have come to our aid? Name yourselves, and I shall give you an appropriate reward for saving a king.” The fat king spoke loudly as he looked at the two mages.
“My king, they are Lady Freya, and Master Artium.” Stephen quickly introduced them as the two gave a respectful bow. Art giving a slight bow, barely lowering his head.
