Your Humble Servant | Robert, Aulus, & Sekhad
Robert’s mouth was full of a lemon and raspberry tart when he first spotted Aulus Acheson, Prince of Voraena! While Robert had been trying to secure Horatio Allerdale as his benefactor, the prospect of having a royal one, was too tempting not to pursue. This was the third banquet he had attended where the prince had also been a guest, but, as of yet, there had not been a proper opportunity for an introduction, but Robert was not about to let another one slip through his fingers: even if it meant leaving the desert table just as they were bring out some chocolate pie!
“Oh! Oh! Your Royal Highness!!!” Robert began to run, waving his hands round to better get the Prince’s attention. He was nearly tripping over his own feet as he tried to catch up with him and nearly caused a serving girl to drop a large tray of food in his wake.
“Your ... Highness!” He was quite out of breathe when he reached him, even though he had hardly run much of a distance. He did not realize what a fool he looked, instead he thought he must seem rather impressive and dedicated to have gone to such lengths to secure the prince’s attention.
“I have been remiss in my duties and have not yet introduced myself to you: I am Robert Persimmons, your must humbled servant.” He bowed low, so low that he risked falling over and nearly lost his balance.
