The voice that was not Arwen's broke through his concentration.
His eyes opened on the woman who had the audactiy not to be Arwen.
"My Lord?"
He looked down from the face that was not that of his wife to her clothes. Great, a servant.
"I don't mean to be rude but would you mind leaving?"
He assumed her answer with out hearing it and returned to meloncolly thoughts of Arwen.

After about a minute he heard the sounds of dresses being moved. "I thought I told you to go."
"You asked if I minded leaving, I do" was the impertinate reply.
"I'll rephrase it for you: leave me alone, please"
"I have to clean this room. I don't know about you but I'm not partial to whipping." So the girl was educated and remarkably striking too he reflected, but still an annoying servant.
"Look, you may not have noticed but I'm the king. I will order you not to be whipped. Happy?"
No. I like to do my work, not have others do it for me."
The girl was insufferable.
"You don't have to go" she called as he got up.
"It seems you have no intention of doing so and so I must."
"I don't mind, it's nice to talk to someone while you clean."
A smile played around his mouth, "you're aware I could order you exucuted for this cheek?"
"Of course."
He sat down, resigned to his fate.
"Alright, I'll stay. So why don't you tell me how you got that interesting scar."
