Arkanos placed his hand thoughtfully under his jaw as he took a moment to consider her words. He then smiled slightly, redirecting his gaze towards her as he said, "I approve. I leave all the specifics of this festival in your capable hands. You may return and inform Arvel so he can get everything in order. I will help by issuing an imperial decree and introducing you to the people of the empire."
He then glanced at the knights and added, "Because it seems not all are aware of the great work you are doing for the empire and its people."
Sylvana lowered her head for a moment, then smiled as she said, "I am most grateful to you for granting me this honor, Your Majesty. I will do my utmost not to disappoint you."
Arkanos nodded slightly, a look of approval on his face. "Good. You may go now."
Sylvana rose to her feet and patted Tebltan's leg. He lowered his head so she could mount, preparing to leave. Just then, Arkanos spoke again.
