King Edin always loved when others knew their place: on their knee before him.  He could not help but slightly smirk as the man bowed. [color=DDB775][i]Yes, yes. Apologize. That's it.[/i][/color] His brow slowly raised as he introduced himself in the third person, pointing at himself. [color=DDB775][i]What is the meaning of this? Does he think I'm a fool? I'm very intelligent.[/i][/color] He scoffed quietly at his own thoughts as Sjan-dehk had been speaking. Nonethless, this man seemed to be a lower noble. 

Though this man was trying to sweeten his reputation by introducing himself initially as captain, King Edin had heard the word "servant" loud and clear. He wasn't anyone important at all. The names he was spewing were hardly familiar. He had wondered if this man had come to spew lies to his face until he did indeed recognize the name of the Queen. [color=DDB775][i]Oh so he's from over there. Egh.[/i][/color] He was silent as he pierced Sjan-Dehk with his gaze while he spoke. He was quite intrigued by the idea of trade. King Edin wondered what luxury goods were being offered. He had wanted to obtain some more exotic decor to impress the Alidasht afterward. Subsequently, the mention of pirates made him turn up his nose.

[color=DDB775][i]Pirates? Hopefully not near me! Smelly criminals! I'll have them destroyed before they ever put their stinky feet on my soil... And he's brought them as prisoners! Ah![/i][/color]

King Edin did start to daydream even though the thought had disgusted him at first. If there were a lot of prisoners, he could put them all to work in the fields. Then he'd have more food. He licked his lips then shook away the glorious daydream as Sjan Dehk went on to offer him a ship, but a very damaged one. 
 
[color=DDB775][i]Why would I want a fucked up ship? Is this what he's brought for trade?[/i][/color]

Thankfully, Albert was quick on the move. He addressed everything in a short but sweet manner. He was glad Albert remembered after all these years how much he despised wasting time. He nodded his approval to his trusty advisor. 

[color=DDB775]"Hmm yes indeed. We will accept these prisoners. I can send my boys down there to collect the smelly things. If the ship is indeed a gift, then after some review I can decide if it is worth fixing at my discretion. You are welcome to stay here in Sorian and rest as Albert has said... I am quite interested in hearing what you had in mind for trade. Has anything of intrigue been brought for trade?"[/color]
