"Have you prepared everything according to my instructions?"
Rayos lay lazily on the couch as beautiful maids tended to his needs. They fed him exquisite fruits and massaged his shoulders and legs. Their clothes were revealing, showing plenty of smooth skin.
"Yes, my lord," replied an old servant, remaining in a bowing posture, never looking at the second prince or his maids.
"All the nobles, high officials, and mayors have been invited. According to our sources, many are already in the city."
Rayos smiled, pleased with how things were proceeding. So far, everyone seemed to have accepted him. If things continued to go smoothly, he would gain the official seal from the court sooner than anticipated.
"There is but one matter that seems troublesome," the servant said, disturbing Rayos' daydreams.
"What is it?" He asked with a frown on his face. He knew if his loyal attendant labeled it troublesome, it truly would be a headache.
