"I'm too tired to see them, so tell them to leave!"
"But my Lord..... they say that it's a message from Hemrew!"
--silence--
"Well don't just stand there!!!!..... send them in immediately, fool!" Nopline bellowed.
For heaven's sake, please let this one be good news.
Please... please.... please!!!
Nopline kept praying silently in his heart, as he watched the other group of messengers make their way into the hall.
Messengers travelling within the empire of Terique, all wore a particular Cape and Crest that they usually wore when going to deliver a message.
Of course for safety reasons, they didn't wear all this during their journey so as not go attract thieves.
But when they are usually in front of the sender or receiver, they had to put on their official attire no matter what.
Messengers had associations spread out throughout the empire, so everyone in Terique knew their official attire.
