Royal Wedding

[Andres]

Savvas enters the wedding hall. The fast ride back from the Belgrade region had exhausted him. He walked towards one of the tables and took a goblet of red wine. He was wearing a blue cape and shiny silver colored boots. He seemed eager to dance.

He saw Makedonios going to the balcony. Savvas took a second goblet of wine and followed him quickly.

"Grandmaster!" Savvas said, jovial while giving Makedonios a slap on the shoulders. "You really dislike these sort of events, don't you? Man, you Order guys should leave those ascetic ways and enjoy life. Have a drink, old chap. You look like you need it!"

Savvas offered the goblet, in the meanwhile looking at Makedonios' cane.

"Is that your dancing partner for the night?", Savvas asked, a large grin on his face.
