Elric once again found himself wanting for some envoy with an over inflated ego to try to make demands of him in his own throne room. An for some reason he found the cushioned seat of his throne far less comfortable than normal as he sat there waiting for the envoy to make his way from the parlor he was told to wait in until summoned.
Elric really could not find anything wrong with the throne or its cushion. In fact the terrified maid he ordered to sit in his throne for a moment stated that it was the second most comfortable thing that she had ever sat on. Only the couches in the drawing room primarily used by Empress Blaze could be said to be more comfortable.
