Jolene and Zire walked inside the royal court when their arrival was announced. Making their way to the throne, they halted a few steps away and kneeled before the King of Jerivia.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!" They said in unison.
King Tobias remembered all the three trusted subordinates of Commander Iria, so he didn't need an introduction and quickly spoke to them. "Your messenger told me that Commander Iria sent a letter. What is it about?"
"Your Majesty, our Commander ordered us to relay the contents of the letter. As she is in an enemy kingdom, she couldn't write to you directly because she must use the secret alphabet that she created. So, she asked us to apologize to you on her behalf." Jolene respectfully said to the King with her head lowered.
"I understand her situation, so there's no need to apologize." King Tobias said in a calm voice. He was always patient when it comes to Iria.
