Rather silent the Court chambers were, quite a different sight from all that has happened in the near past. The Imperial Guard were present, safekeeping the Throne until His Greatness was in his personal chambers. Ikeda had arrived to the Court, ready for his guard shift, still rubbing his eyes. Once at the door he bowed towards the general direction of the room, showing respect for all who where there, and to the Throne.
He knew most of the Dragons present in the room, but one he never laid eyes upon until now. Sitting in the back rows, either shy or respectful enough to wait to be addressed. Still a bit tired he decided to join him, and Ikeda sat in the back near the Dragon, "Sumimasen brother, is it your first time here?"
