It was strange being the one people were standing for.
As Henry and Felix walked into the room, the old advisors stood for them and gave slight bows or nods of acknowledgment until the men were situated in their seats; Henry at the head of the table and his second in command to his right.
At the end of the table, Henry had asked Siverly and Stanley to join them for the meeting. He found the input of mages to be important and he knew they would have input for when he revealed what he wanted to.
On his left, Earl Auden stared at Henry intensely.
The earl had only just returned to the north and, after sitting in on court meetings with his majesty, he had been hearing strange news about Henry. The thought that the knight had mage blood was laughable. He was simply too big to have been born from a mage.
