Armand looked over Emmett, running his eyes up and down the thin man's frame. Emmett saw an eyebrow raise slightly. "Guards lock this man up. I will not have such ridiculous blasphemy in my court!" Two guards stepped to either side of Emmett and easily lifted him. They carried him screaming from the court to a dungeon beneath Lila Schloss. The crowd laughed and went back to their conversations.
Emmett sat in the cold cell. He heard someone approaching. It was one of the men who stood behind the king, the nicer looking one, and he was carrying something. "You certainly made an impression on the court young man. You especially mad an impression on the king. Don't be fooled by the hasty imprisonment. The king cannot take any chances. He is in a difficult position and cannot have people thinking that he is entertaining your proposal. I am Benjamin Strattford, adviser to the king. This is for you." Benjamin unlocked the cell and placed on a table a plate overflowing with fine meats and cheeses and ripe fruit.
"The king thought you looked a bit... malnourished."
