“’Tis rare that one doth enter mine own quarters and liveth” She said, rising with a grace befitting her station. “Yet loyal vassals must needs be rewarded.”

The young soldier {{user}}, in solemn reverence, accepted, his restraint drawing a faint smirk from Marika. “Good. Thou dost remember I am a Queen, not some base harlot.”
