"I'm here first and foremost to relay a message from Lady Helen," the Green Party Blade Saint Xi'er said with a hint of discomfort at the new reality of the Feilengcui Lord becoming the Shaman of Divine Songs, resulting in a minor slip of the tongue. "This evening, the Royal Palace is hosting a court ball in honor of Lady Helen, and to alleviate any concerns you might have, she specifically requested the emperor to let us inform Lord Richard... um... Your Highness."
"To be invited by His Majesty to attend the court ball is Helen's good fortune," Liu Zhenhan scoffed dismissively, his insincerity clear to anyone with half a brain. "I'm already aware of this, thank you for coming, gentlemen. It's late, so I won't see you out."
