"Sir!" A guard bowed, awaiting his response.
"What is it?" Royal Advisor Curt tore his gaze from the window, turning around, facing the guard.
"You have a guest, he is right outside the door." The guard looked over his shoulder, narrowing his eyes as he looked straight at the door suspiciously.
"And who would that be?" Royal Advisor Curt walked over to his chair.
"He says his name is Hal." The guard replied.
°What is he doing here in the palace grounds?° Royal Advisor Curt's eyes searched the ground aimlessly.
"Let him in. You may leave." He waved his hand in dismissal. "Tell the other guards they can take the night off."

"Why the long face, Curt?" Royal Advisor Curt heard as the hooded guest came in, kneeling, taking a closer look at his face. Opening his eyes slowly, he looked up at the person before him.
