"i'm Dan Sae, your personal orderly your highness"

"my...orderly"

"yes your highness, I'm here to give you the invitation card for this evening, the Queen invites you, you'll have dinner together and her majesty will explain you her project" Dan Sae added

"good...well... you'll probably be hungry, do you want to eat something?" the duke asked... still staring at his guest.

"no thanks your highness, I've just eaten , I'm sorry to refuse your invitation but I don't want to feel too full" Dan Sae answered politely with a small smile on his face.

"I suppose... that you can't eat too much to keep your body like this..." the duke murmured.

"Is there anything wrong? you... you're staring... did I say something wrong" Dan Sae asked, he seemed worried, he really thought that he did a mistake, wasn't he aware of how handsome he is ?

"no, of course, would you please follow me?" David said, he was used to the duke and his tendence to stare in front of true exmple of beauty.

David and Dan Sae left the room.

"Officer, tell a servant to prepare me a bath, I'm pretty tired." the duke ordered, he was a bit angry, probably because his butler took away his orderly... David... why can't you simply understand the wish of your lord? Maybe someday you'll learn this lesson.

When the duke was washing himself, submerged with water just below his neck he heard that David was talking with the orderly.

"so... we will live in the royal palace?" David asked.

"Yes, tomorrow a few servants will arrive here and take your stuff to the palace." Dan Sae answerd.

"Really! I was afraid that we had to live here... with only these officers and sailors as friends"

"By the way... why have you come here David?"

"well... We couldn't remain in France because of the revolution..." David answered.

" A revolution?... and why can you two spleak korean? The queen sent me because I'm one of the few people in Hanseong who speaks french" an absolutely legit question.

"well, when we were in France there was an officer named Kangsung, he was the duke's lov..." when David was about to finish his sentence a shout interrupted him.

"STOP, there is no need to bother him with those sad stories" the duke yelled from a window.

The duke came back in his room, he looked in the eyes of the officer...

"Now listen here Erik, you'll find a way to avoid Dan sae leaving this place until this evening ok? Try something special, emotional, I'll give you whatever you want but now find something" the duke said, he then went waiting behind the window watching the situation in the courtyard.

The officer reached the courtyard with... a bucket full of water?

"no..." the duke murmured... even if he wanted he wouldn't avoid the disaster now... it was too late.

"so we were talking about..." Dan Sae was talking with David when he suddenly felt covered with water... he remained there for a minute, everyone was speechless. the officer came back to the duke's quarters.

"so... was it good your highness?" Erik asked.

"when I said something special... I didn't mean this... but at least it worked, it seems he's coming back...look!" the duke answered.

"your highness... I'm sorry but do you have any clothes for me?" Dan sae asked.

"Of course... David go take some clothes for our guest, I'll help him taking off this wet dress" the duke said.

" Don't worry your highness, I can help him as wel..." Erik was about to said it when the duke added

"I said that I'll help him, now Dan Sae let's take this ... off..."

"what's wrong your highness... I'm freezing... and why is blood falling from your nose?" Dan Sae added.

"Erik... please help our guest... I'll take something warm for him in the kitchen" the duke said

"your highness, the kitchen is in the other way!" erik yelled.

"SHUT UP" the duke shouted back.

A few moments later David arrived with new clothes and asked

"Dan Sae where is his highness?"

"I don't know, he was helping me getting undressed and then blood fell from his nose" Dan Sae was worried, david instead already knew what was happening

"By the way, you should wear this, it will help the duke with his blood" David said.

"Oh thank you, but how exactly?"

"well... you'll understand when you will know my lord better"
