He surprised me by his words and so I smiled. “I mean it, you are the strongest willed human I have seen in a long time. Don’t let my sadistic grandson ruin that. Keep your head high, you have done absolutely nothing wrong.” I think my spirit is gone, at least today. I was just completely exhausted from the night before, I had never actually slept in the presence of the king
