As Eric approached the table, he was thanked for the meal. He was happy to hear that the princess liked his cooking so much, and knew that he would continue to cook there for as long as he lived. The Chef quickly took Samsul's bare plate and headed back to the kitchen to clean up the plate for later use. Samsul thanked Eric as well and silently followed Anastasia. When they reached the door, he noticed that the was hesitant on opening it. He didn't say anything still and waiting until she knocked on the door. The Lost Elf nodded to the knight who was at the door and stayed at Anastasia side, his eyes moving to Elana, who was stationed at her grand desk with a few papers scattered around. She looked up from her work and smiled sweetly at her daughter, happy to see her again. After hearing her question about spending some time together, the Queen's smile grew and she quickly left her seat. "Of course my daughter!" She said happily. "You can ask me whatever you want, and I'll be sure to give you an answer to the best of my abilities." The woman turned to Samsul and her smile returned to normal. "I'm sure that you would join us, Samsul. After all, the future head of the guard should feel elated to have been picked to watch me and Anastasia."
