"He should be in Turtevekesia or Sidgean. Hmm, I suppose it's about time to order the spy in Mindsza to check his whereabouts. It's gonna take a while for sure."

"Uhm...Your Majesty?" A soft voice spoke up and interrupted his monologue.

"Huh?" Startled, the young king looked up and noticed there was a woman around his age sitting across from him.

Apparently, he got so absorbed in his own thoughts that he completely forgot about her existence.

"I'm sorry, Audrey. I kinda forget you're here," he admitted and offered her a wry smile.

Audrey shook her head. "It's okay, Your Majesty. I can come back later if you want. It just feels wrong listening to you murmuring about sensitive information."

Since she was called here, Audrey thought the king was about to hand a new task for her. She didn't expect to hear his monologue instead.

"Oh no, it is fine. You don't have to worry about that. I called you here because I have task for you to do."
