Dan's POV
A long table was set up in the dining hall with his mother and father sitting at one end of the table, his eldest brother to the king's right and him to the left as per usual, his youngest brother sat beside his older brother and his sister to his left despite her being older than their little brother.
After that sat their great uncle and next to the princess the uncle's real bastard son, who was rarely invited to anything due to his bastard status sat with them tonight. However, nobles sat with them tonight, just the Harnizians. His father might have decided he could be useful for something. An empty place setting sat next to his uncle and he couldn't fathom who it was for until his father asked his Great Uncle where his other child was.
"I apologize but Dan could not make it as he is far too sick." He complained before giving him a chilling look over his wine glass.
