As soon as King Olwin appeared out of the Keystone Portal, all surrounding guards immediately saluted him.
"Welcome back, your Majesty," they echoed in unison.
The Keystone Portal linked directly to within the castle walls. This was specially reserved for royal family members to use, aside from a few selected members of court.
"Duxton,"
"Yes sire?"
"I need you to process the blood just as before and have Doctor Bron begin the transfusion as soon as possible," King Olwin ordered.
Duxton bowed, "As you wish, your majesty. Allow me to accompany you back to your chambers to rest. I am certain Queen Marion…"
King Olwin stopped Duxton, "I will be in my study until it is time for the Morning Court session."
The servant bit his lip. He knew his Majesty was suffering from exhaustion from their journey, he needed rest.
"But sire, you need to rest. As our leader, you must take good care of your health."
