The High King's seneschal is sick.

The news spreads like wildfire through the palace, servants swarming the halls and buzzing with whispers.

You never get sick.

Sure, you're one of the two humans in Elfhame that aren't servants, and generally weaker than most fae, but you're High King Cardan's seneschal. Not to mention you terrify the living daylights out of those who get on your bad side.

It isn't any small sickness, either. The doctor himself is struggling to figure out the issue.

It doesn't take long for the news to reach Cardan in the throne room --- The High King of Elfhame, your recent enemy that you just so happened to be the closest advisor of.
