The sun slanted through a dusty window to reveal an office filled with countless books and ancient hand drawn maps. A small illustrious man with white hair and blue-eyes sat at his desk. He was clearly accustomed to living a leisurely life. He also happened to be the Dean of Selium, Sacoridia's most prestigious school. Dean Geyer sat at his desk, the papers were meticulously stacked to one side. They had been placed there that morning by one of the apprentices. That was where the pile would remain as well, for he had much more important things to attend to such as fixing his ship in a bottle, the one that annoying G'ladheon merchant had destroyed.
A light tapping sounded on his door. "What do you want Matterly?" He demand of the clerk that he knew would be on the other side of the door. "I'm extremely busy at the moment."
"I know you are Dean." The clerk said "but there's a Green Rider here to see you, with a message from the king. He says it's important."
Dean Geyer sighed. "Fine, let him in." Those greenies had no respect.
The green rider entered his message satchel thrown carelessly over his shoulder. He of course wore green, but the first thing the Dean noticed was the mischievous glint in the rider's eye.
"I've a message here for Dean Geyer from the High King of Sacodria." Connly said handing it to the Dean. Who glanced at it and cast it aside as if it was of little or no importance.
Connly waited for a few minutes. Finally Geyer looked up again. "Is there anything else rider?" he asked in a disdainful tone of voice.
"Actually the king wanted me to wait until you read the letter, in case you had any questions." Connly said the perfect image of a rider doing his duty, though he was roaring with laughter inside. Dean Geyer made the Lords appear humble and that was saying something.
"I am a very busy man rider!" The Dean warned, but when it became clear that Connly was willing to wait for the Dean to open the letter, even if it took a week, he relented and opened it. The letter was sealed with the king's seal and written in a fine slanted script that Geyer recognized to be King Zachary's own hand. It read.
Dean Geyer,
It has been brought to my attention that you unjustly suspended Karigan G'ladheon roughly a month ago. I know the circumstance of the fight that occurred between Karigan and Young Lord Mirwell. I am also aware that he provoked her into fighting in the first place and then dishonorably attacked her from behind. After learning of the events that caused this courageous Lady to be suspended, and personally finding that she poses the highly admirable character and quick wit that Selium's students are famous for. I am compelled to request that you kindly invite Karigan back to your esteemed halls of learning. She is to be allowed study in which ever field she chooses and treated equally to all other students. Also extend my many thanks to Arms Master Rendle for sharing his expertise of the sword with Karigan as well as the suggestion that he take her on as a private student.
In my own hand,
Zachary Hilander
The High King of Sacoridia
The Dean stared at the letter in his hands and then up at Connly as if expecting him to say it was all a joke. Connly simply smiled and asked "I take it you have no questions."
When the Dean nodded dumbly Connly left humming to himself. He stopped at the threshold though and turned back to the white-haired Dean. "I suggest you obey those orders, if you don't you will not only be dealing with an angry king." When the man merely gave him a mystified look Connly continued, "She's managed to gained the respect of all the riders and even some of the Weapons in a matter of days, insulting her would not be wise." That being said he walked out of the office leaving behind an awestruck bewildered old man.
"A king standing up for a merchant." He murmerd "What is the world coming too?" He shook his head in disbelief and then pulled out a sheet of paper that would be dispatched to the G'ladheon mansion immediately, inviting Karigan G'ladheon back to school.
