Owen smiled for once, a perverse sort of mischievous grin that glittered in grey eyes at the prospect that more meant merrier. Certainly, Owen could arrange for more. “Excellent.” He considered this a compliment of the handmaiden’s skills in promising to arrange for whatever banquet he desired to throw and to take care of all of his personal request. He pledged to himself to test the Queen’s servant with all of his needs.
The reigns to Cimmerian, his stallion were handed off to hands that accepted them. Owen didn’t take note of the poor soul who would try to care for his horse who immediately balked - refusing another step once out of his master’s command.
The Emperor and his entourage flanking him in a perfect formation meant to be intimidating followed the handmaiden into the castle. Owen walked with a quick pace and long strides, as if to push Maeve along and signal to her he was impatient to be brought to his destination. The guardsmen dispatched themselves along the hallway leaving the Emperor with his advisors, servants, and personal guard for the remainder of the trip down to his own chambers.
Owen barely glanced around the room. It took much to impress him as he had been treated to a number of over fancied bedrooms during his travels. He looked at the coverlet with almost disgust. The thought of sleeping with that fabric over his body in this heat was unbearable to him. He planned to sleep in the nude on top of the sheets with the windows and balcony doors open wide.
“This will do fine.” He replied curtly to Maeve. His hands immediately moved to relieve straps and buckles that bound his armor to him. He was desperate to have the leather off his body which suffered miserably from the heat and lack of ventilation in his thick Eskran clothing.
A young man burst forward. One of the Emperor’s several valets moving to help him undress, “Let me assist you My Lord.” The young man offered, hands moving to the straps.
The Emperor pushed at hands that attempted to help him. “I will do it myself. I don’t want to be fussed over. I’m hot enough as it is. Leave me be.” He barked at the young man who jumped and stepped back a pace. As the pieces of leather were released, Owen just let them fall, forcing the boy to move to catch them lest they land at his feet.
Owen sighed with relief when the last of the leather fell from his body. He seemed visibly more comfortable. He moved towards the balcony to catch the breeze and continued to undress himself. Fingers worked first at the clasp to his cloak and then at buttons that fastened his thick brocade tunic to him. The clothing fell away leaving the Emperor in a sweat soaked undershirt clinging to his skin. This was quickly removed and tossed away. The valet scampered after catching whatever fell.
“I will send word when I am ready.” Was the fashion by which he dismissed Maeve, when he remembered her presence since freed from the prison of his heavy clothes. “Thank you.” He added as an after thought.
The advisers had stood patiently outside of the Emperor’s chambers waiting for their moment to have a word alone with the grumpy and over-haughty Emperor.
