Penelope watched as Crow gibed again and then moved to follow the attendant. She stepped to follow him, casting William one final  glance as she shrugged her shoulders to him acting just as clueless. The older knight curled his lip slightly, looking further angered by the situation. The female knight let out a small sigh and turned her back to him as she followed after Crow and the attendant. 

Right away, she was surprised to see the attendant leading them to the staircase to take them to the rooms that were higher up. Only high ranking nobles and royalty resided in the rooms on the coming floors. She would have thought that his father would put him one the bottom floor where the staff and servants usually slept. If they were going higher up, exactly what room was Crow getting?  Fueled by curiosity, she peaked around Crow to address the attendant. 

"Excuse me but... exactly where is the king placing him?" Penelope asked. 

The attendant glanced over his shoulder at her and gave another uncomfortable look. "He'll be staying in-in the viceroy's room." 

"What?" The knight blinked in surprise. She had suspected that might have been where they were headed but it was still shocking to learn. It seemed Albin really wanted him to take this new position. She didn't doubt he was giving him the room in order to try and win him over. 

The attendant frowned and focused his gaze back ahead. "His majesty made it clear that he wished to have him reside in this specific room."
