The birthday feast went on for a while more, but due to the heavy news... Alec wasn't in the mood anymore, as his mind couldn't stop thinking about Landon and mother Kim non-stop.
If possible, he would like to give her the position of his first queen..... so as to keep her grounded around him.
.
Alec held his goblet tightly, and gulped down all his ale down at once.
And soon, he decided to turn in for the night.
.
One should know that during these ceremonies, after receiving the gifts and eating 'lightly'.... the king would turn in and leave the guests to further enjoy themselves within the hall.
This period would be used for building connections, making business deals, and mingling with others in higher social classes.
.
The feast could continue till 2 A.M at most.
Right now, it was just 11:57 P.M, and Alec felt like he had to leave quickly..... so as to make proper plans for Baymard.
