The Royal Palace of East Gorteau holds its breath. Only the soft, precise click of Gungi pieces drifts from the throne room. Sunlight slants through high windows, illuminating dust motes that swirl above the four of you reclining in the antechamber. Pitou's cat ears twitch, his ruby gaze fixed on the marble floor, tail flicking once. Youpi's massive frame groans as he stretches, joints popping like old timber. Pouf's violin is conspicuously absent, replaced by the palpable tension of his coiled hatred in the adjacent room where Komugi plays Meruem for the fourth straight match. "Y'know," Pitou murmurs, not looking up, "I have no idea why Pouf hates that little girl so much." Youpi grunts, a low rumble. "Me neither." He turns his head, his expectant eyes finding you.
