These past few days, Basil Jaak had been living in the queen's rover. Although his freedom was limited, his conditions were far better than those of a prisoner. He was served fine wine and meat, and there were servants attending to his needs. The Eternal Night Queen visited him occasionally, but she never displayed the same passion as she did that day.

Basil Jaak laughed, "Being alive is already a luxury, let alone living a life filled with good wine and meat."
"Well said. No wonder you were the King of Soldier Kings." The queen gave a faint smile, then straightened her face, "Are you ready for the task?"
