It really is quite hilarious. So hilarious in fact, that when the king caught me eavesdropping on a conversation he was having with one of his general, one Orich Alcum the Third, he assumed that I had simply happened on them while practicing a new comedy routine. Of course, this was due in part to the fact that when he opened the door, I landed on my face and then accidentally did a backflip to compensate for my blunder. I swear, he nearly soiled himself laughing at the sight of me. I didn't actually hear anything the king and his general said, given how thick the walls and doors in the castle are built. But the king told me, after he was done being doubled over with laughter, that he'd like to have a conversation with me. What he wants to talk about, I don't know, but I doubt it's anything that will play in my favor. Note: I'm not so sure I like the looks of that Orich Alcum fellow. Something about him just seems off. . .
