Hod just sat on a bench within the garden, lirftening to the calmness that he could find within this space, it was good for him also to finally be able to rest after such a long jounry down to the south, passing the naboring country of Coledonii to finally be able to travel to Mandisa. He was wondering what his wife and children were doing back up in the north as he did miss them but he knew that his duties for the High king come first before everything else. Closing his eyes he could slowly make out footsteps interrupting the silence, opening his eyes he could see that soldiers had come for him for some odd reason. Raising himself up from the bench he looked at the soldiers while they spoke, requesting him back at the throne room but what did borther him was what verdict was they talking about. . . He didn't know they had a vote or something. "Very well lead me to the throne room. " He reply as he looked back towards his own guards and ordered them to follow after them in Old Celtic again. After a few minutes of walking with the knowing guards of the palace they arrived at the throne room a Hod saw the Pharaoh sitting on the throne still debating over something . Hod followed the young Pharaoh as she was exiting but soon focused his energy towards the advisors. " I thank you for room you have granted me while I'm staying here " He bowed to them as he took his head up again as they started to talk about courtship. . " I am sure the Great High king olaf the second will be pleased to have the Pharaoh visit him in the north. We could depart in one or two days, though it will be a long journey ahead of us." -------------- Olaf and hodor was laughing over a silly joke that hodor had told olaf but the both of them soon quiet as olaf shifted his view towards the door and saw Kurt walk in and take seat. " Ah little Kurt how has it been little man?" Hodor asked, his cheeks were red as he was already quite drunk but olaf had hold a little back on drinking so his mindset was still clean despite also havening had a few mugs. " I have been quite good uncle Hodor." Kurt said as he saw the servant come in to ask what he wanted to eat. Kurt just wanted a piece some potatoes and a good piece cooked pork. The sevent nod and soon went into the kitchen again " Eh Olaf my boy why did you again write a proposal of marriage to the new Pharaoh." Hodor asked as he afterwards took a mighty drain down his throat, the mead flew downwards and into his stomach. " I did it because I want more land my abition to rebuild the empire that once stood proud." Hodor nod as he just laughs at his idea "Ya know boy i'm with ya despite the other jarls might say I'm with ya boy."
