His face remained fixed with that broad smile that spoke of genuine, deep joy, but also more than a little lechery. "Ahh, glad I am to hear it. Here, let my man take that for you..." He glanced to the side, where a servant was standing ready; the man moved forward swiftly to collect the tablet with the utmost care, before looking a bit awkward about what to -do- with it. He settled with sort of lingering near his companions and waiting upon the King's next move.<br/><br/>One of Alric's arms swept around Janica, fastening her to his side and ushering her toward the exit. She could feel some level of strength left in the man, who clearly remained active, though he was no warrior. Not anymore. "I will show you the way myself, and give you one of my very finest servants. Come, come." Abandoning the disgruntled scowls of his aide - who would have to smooth over ANOTHER missed meeting with some rather influential nobles due to the King's carnal desires - he headed toward the exit.<br/><br/>"Your room will be just a few along from my own. A real treat, for a warrior such as yourself, I'm sure." Guards opened the doors, and he passed through, still helping the girl along unnecessarily... While rubbing her side with one of his thumbs. At least it was tame enough, for the moment. "Of course if you want to see the very... the very PINNACLE of comfort, you'd have to join me in my room." He laughed like it was a joke; it wasn't, not really.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
