Henry watched in interested as Loki presented before him a young woman to explain her story this was the first time in this court to have happened for a woman to speak freely as she would and not be queen; Anne stepped forward looking at Henry she gave him a curtsy before beginning her story,"That day the mercenaries came through our land.. killed the lord and lady of the manor along with there son..", she commented in a soft voice,"All men were killed I am unsure but I belive the children were brutally murdered in the attack as well what little we had.. and all the women where brought out for spoils of war", she said in a soft voice,"10 select young ladies myself included were to be tooken to a camp where we stood before a captain I am sure... he was going to use us for personal services... before he was sent away.. we sat in the tent awaiting our fate your majesty only to have a strange hooded man come in and began to kill one of us women", she took a deep breathe,"I ran for fear of my life we all scattered and the mercenaries came back to deal with the hooded man knowing I had escaped I ran into the marshlands upon stumbling I met Loki coming out of the woods in a cloak he...", she paused,"He spoke to the men in a strange voice and they began to kill one another", there were gasp and mummers around the room as Henry's eyes got big as he raised his hand for silence,"He carried me back to shore where I swore allegiance before the events I just told.. He walked along the beach and spoke again as the men killed themselves at his command", she said hearing the room grow quiet with murmuring,"He offered us a deal to serve him many called him out as a demon or the devil but he told us he was the god Loki and showed us his great power by rising an actual castle from the water.. Me and a few other english ladies serve him", she concluded turnign to nodded at loki before stepping back; Alot of mixed emotions were going through Henry's facial expression as he tried to think of something to remark of this.

Henry try to manage a smile even though you could tell he was rather disgusted with the whole situation he remained calm and unflustered over the whole ordeal... As the girls turned to the king they gave him a deep curtsy,"Thank you your grace we are most pleased you have given our Lord the lands of Whales", they said having Anne take the lead in words. As they all stood up henry remarked,"You are most welcome to stay if you need.. I have had not time for your arrival for I have been unable to attain you gifts here..", henry snapped his fingers as his coutiers brought out some jewels, furs, and cloth,"For your Ladys of the court so they may shine in your own court and as for you...", said Henry standing slowly as he walked forward (this was during the period of time that Ghoute had took his legs) he moved over to the window,"I shall give you 2 of my best horses for yourself and your brave knight", he concluded nodding toward Noah,"Let me know if you need assistance or items... I shall send to you what I can", said Henry trying to play impressive as he always did,"If you are seeking a queen such as myself I have 2 available daughters", he told him,"The Lady Mary and the Lady Elizabeth if you wish for their portraits I shall have them shipped to your castle in whales", said Henry already trying to tie down a proposed marriage,"For I am unsure how a god will love a mortal woman but I am sure you know how Politcal marriages work..", a deep sadness resigned, within his gaze,"Sometimes you have to do so for the sake of your kingdom..", he was referring to his marriage with Anne of Cleves after not long losing his wife Jane Seymour.

Anne turned as did the others towards loki,"I have learned that Henry isn't as hotheaded as people take him for", she told loki,"If he was the tryrant that really killed 3 wives already I dont see it... perhaps he did... He was used to having all of england but he was willing to give up whales for the sake of a war he couldn't win", concluded anne; The other girls nodded,"He may not be as handsome as he used to be but he is still very tall and very well spoken in such a princely manner", concluded joan, the other nodded,"I am glad that Lord loki defended us against the male courtier he was rather prune", said mary, the girls nodded in agreement,"Thank you Lord Loki for defending us we are very grateful", said anne, as the girls chimed in their agreements.
