"Excuse me what?" Asked one of the guards for fear that he might have heard wrong.
Hal smirked,
"Are you hard of hearing? I said I came to entertain him" he said and crossed his arms before his chest.
The guards eyed him up and down and especially spent more time staring at his face,
"You don't look like a jester" one of them eventually said.
"That's because I'm not. I'm something better. I'm a Runemaster" he said with a hint of theatrical flair.
The guards shared a look and their eyes were filled with wonder,
"Are you here with Runemaster Fenrir?" One of them asked.
Hal looked confused,
"Who the fuck is that? I'm Hal Klint and I am a solo act." He said.
The guard turned to the others who had of course not missed a bit of the conversation and asked,
"Did any of you know of a Runemaster named Hal Klint coming here to perform"
They shrugged,
