Lord Shevek clasped his hands in front of him and shrugged. “I will have anything you offer.”

They shared some kind of secret look, before my mom giggled and looked away. “I will go prepare breakfast.” She stood there for a moment, unmoving.

“Mom? Are you alright?” I called out.

“Of course.” She said and turned away. “I will be back.”
