It was early morning, and the newly-crowned king of Lorien was still asleep, with his queen in his arms.

*There was a knock on the door, and Captain Haldir of Lorien entered the room and went over to Steerpike.*
"Umm.... Your Majesty! It is about time to start your new duties as a king."

Steerpike groaned a little. He was reminded rather painfully of getting kicked in the ribs to get to work Back There.
"Damn it," he muttered.
He pulled his arms carefully from around Eleanor and slid out of bed, then pulled the covers up over her shoulders.

*Haldir looked at him with a smile.*
"So, what are the first orders of our new king?"
*He asked.*

Steerpike ignored him and stretched.

*Nessa entered the room and poked Haldir cheerfully in the side.*
"Haldir, let the poor man get some breakfast before you decide to drown him in work!"
*She placed a tray on the table beside the bed and turned to Steerpike.*
"Good morning Sire! If it pleases Your Majesty to open his royal eyes, I have the coffee ready. And there is also a full English breakfast here on the tray for you."

"You're going to wake her," he said, slightly harshly, pointing at the still-sleeping Eleanor.

*Nessa looked at him and laughed.*
"Well of course I am!"
*She replied.*
"Her Majesty has a lot of duties to fulfill today as well. All the most important ladies in the kingdom has arrived and are waiting to congratulate her. But first I will need to get her dressed and give her some breakfast."

"I know she is asleep! Why else would I have come here to wake her up? Her Majesty has her duties to fulfill. If she makes a bad start, the upper class will stop supporting the both of you. Don't you know how important it is keeping up your appearances, Sire?"

Steerpike rolled his eyes.
"Do you- do you know what we did last night?"

*Haldir turned to Nessa, shocked over the way she spoke to the king.*
"Nessa! Behave like a lady. Let the queen rest. I don't give a damn about those old hags who's waiting out there. "

*Nessa snorted.*
"That's because you're the one who doesn't have to send them home!"
*She replied and left the room.*
