Proposal From The King

Meanwhile in Griven...

Walys Ahren returned home and called for his family to gather in the living room. Only his wife, elder son Euron, and daughter Erin were available, as Rafal had gone with Oriana to Aurialor, and his third son was not yet in the capital.

Euron and Erin arrived at the drawing hall where Walys and his wife were waiting.

"Father. Mother," they both bowed respectfully.

"Have a seat," Walys instructed.

The siblings settled into chairs next to each other, sensing their father had something important to discuss.

Euron spoke up, "Father, you seem troubled. Is something wrong?"

Walys nodded, "Today, His Majesty asked me about something significant."

"What is it?" Euron inquired.

"His Majesty asked if I would consider marrying Erin to one of the Lords of the Northeast," Walys replied.

Euron and Erin were taken aback.
