The halfling messenger touched two fingers to his chin respectfully as the small noble turned to face him, silver badge displaying the crest of Hirwind.
“The King requests your presence in Caserlic at your earliest convenience to discuss the dam.”
“Very good,” The well-dressed gnome replied, turning to a nearby guard to give instructions.
“Have my airship readied to travel to Caserlic. Also, send word to Scir Vorn that the King and I are meeting to discuss the dam.”
The guard hurried out of the hall to do as told, as Scir Ludo walked back toward his desk to gather some papers.
“You are dismissed.”
