"The Monkey Queen?"
Riley's ears moved on their own as soon as he heard the words that came out of the master of the house's lips. He hadn't actively tried searching for his traveling companions yet, and now he already had a clue of where one of them might possibly be.
"Could I know more about this Monkey Queen you speak of?" Riley asked as he gently put down his fork on the plate, but the only answer he received from the master of the house was silence.
Well… a deafening silence, that is.
It wasn't only the master of the house, the rest of the people inside the dining hall all had their mouths wide open. Riley tilted his head, slightly confused as to why they were doing so.
"Have all of you contracted the same disease?" He asked curiously, "If so, then I must say that that is a horrifying disease—flies could get into your mouth."
