That afternoon Eira was subjected to a very boring carriage ride. Apparently Arnold's choice of showing the princess a good time, was riding around the kindom in a carriage and talking about himself constantly. The man talked about the most mundane of things, starting from when he was born, where he was born, how he was the most adorable pup of the litter, and all his achievements that for some reason he felt would impress the princess.
Eira had never been so bored in her life, even Zhelimir who was riding beside the carriage on horseback could see that the princess couldn't wait for the hour to be over.
".... and then when I was knighted by the king in Meria, I not only bought pride upon my gild, but upon my family as well."
Eira sighed and looked out the window at Zhelimir who was clearly holding back his laughter.
"Are you not impressed princess?" Sir Arnold asked excitedly.
