[@LostDestiny] [b]the king[/b] The king blinked. He looked away from the elder man for a time when he heard someone speak to him. His eyes landed on the half orc prince and the elder one that was with him. He gave a nod as he was spoken to, and he assumed that it was some kind of speech judging from the formal tone and everything. He smiled towards them. He was sincerely glad they had taken him up on his invitation. Everything seemed to be going according to plan so far, he thought. He stepped towards them. "Welcome. And gratitude is expressed. I trust your trip was not filled with troubles?" He certainly hoped not. He needed them in good spirits, if a marriage to one of his daughters was to happen. He glanced back behind him for a moment to make sure his daughters behaved themselves. He, then, cleared his throat and summoned staff who handled the animals normally. They would do their best to get the boars to the pens, with some help of course. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [b]Prince Alexander[/b] Alexander did his best to behave himself. He kept quiet while the others spoke, lest his sister scold him again. His sister, he noted, kept her eyes on the king and the other guests at all times. Alexander tried not to sigh with her around. "................" He wanted to say something, but found he could not. As soon as he even made a sound, Sarah had her eyes on him. He, instead, frowned, and glanced away. The prince had his own desires, like the desire to marry for love. He also wished to explore the world. But, sadly, he thought, that was not to be. Anyway, he watched the exchange for a moment before his eyes landed on the princesses, the kings daughters. He wondered what they were thinking. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [b]Princess Emily[/b] Emily sighed. She could not help it. She was still having those thoughts about dashed hopes and dreams and such. She glanced at her father during the exchange between him and the half-orc prince, after he had spoken with that old man. She managed to keep silent. "....................." She hoped that the half-orc prince was not the one to choose her. He seemed....rather intimidating. She did not know if she could handle such a marriage. She almost gasped, though, when she saw the boars. They were intimidating and yet...sort of impressive. "wow....." She managed to keep her voice at a quiet whisper. She soon watched as the staff who handled animals dealt with them. She saw three princes so far once that moment had passed. Three suitors....so far. Three possible future husbands. She could not help but wonder with whom she would be paired with.
