Ransom with a perk / / Fereldensking
Alistair sat upon a navy blue cushioned chair with gold lacing the dark wood, tired eyes half lidded as he cups his shadowed cheek, staring off in a bored daze.
"'It'll be fun!' He says." Alistair mimics in a bitter tone, a few servants giving him an odd expression as they pass by with platters of rich delicacies. "'It'll be a good experience for a future heir to the throne', my ass." He lets out a sigh and leans back onto the chair in a not so regal fashion, irritation clear in his posture.
Cailan was better suited for these type of gatherings, he at least enjoyed the attention, enjoyed the praise. It just made Alistair uncomfortable, all these nobles wanted something from him, whether it be power of money (which he had neither of, in all honesty). Unfortunately for Alistair, Cailan was out on sea with Anora, enjoying the finer things in life as he sipped wine while watching the sun set over the horizon.
