"Emperor, we have a handful of reports from all the Guild Executives, and they are all termed to be immediately attended to."
A young man who looked to be in his late fifties or so walked into the Emperor's chamber after being granted permission to, and the first thing he did was make an announcement about the reports in hand.
"Not until you tell me you also have reports concerning my one and only daughter," the Emperor's prestigious voice sounded in objection, as he didn't even care to turn.
His face looked like that of someone who had been suffering from a deep state of worry, and with what he had just said, one could tell what his problem had been.
The messenger hadn't said a word, and he only stammered a couple of times before the Emperor voiced out.
