Watching television with the Thorin's was always a fun experience for Roland, it involved a lot of screams, questions and other dramatic behaviors mostly exhibited by Lady Iryne.
Like now, they were only five minutes into the The Courtesan's Dilemma and she had already paused the show to ask a question. She stood at the front and faced everyone as the question was a general one.
"Why was a king allowed to have a harem?"
Elowin was like the eager student in class, his hand was the first to go up. "Political alliances mother, its the same reason why the king is allowed to have two wives."
"I feel like this question was meant for Roland." General Paxton said.
Roland shrugged, "Why me?"
"You are the prince here." The general answered in a way that was obvious.
"Every man in Eldoria is allowed to marry two wives if he wishes, can we not make this a royal family thing." Roland dived back into his food, preferring that the matter be sealed and they go back to watching the series.
