Caius was meeting with his father's advisors when a knock could be heard at the door. No one in the room stirred, nor did they act as though they had heard the knock. Conversations continued as usual, which was the advisors mostly telling him what his father wanted and Rylen briefing them on what they had done.
There was rarely ever a need for his input, but unfortunately, this was not a meeting he could refuse to attend, even though he thought it was unnecessary and a little roundabout. Thankfully, it didn't happen often enough for him to lose his marbles.
Caius watched as one of the guards walked toward the door after some time to see who was interrupting the meeting. The guards present at the meeting were not stationed here by him. Only he and Rylen were allowed to attend on his end; everyone else was assigned by his father.
