News did not travel fast in the kingdom, and though he knew a bit about Niro's injury, as well as the guests staying in the pack's territory for a few days, the King thought himself ill informed of what was going on. Though his daughter often kept him up to date on what was going on, Charlotte could not keep track of everything at such a young age and still enjoy herself, and so he had asked her to focus more on herself than others.
Whatever was happening in his mind that made him more withdrawn than normal, the King knew he needed to take the initiative and set forth with the intention of learning something about Niro or his son's visit. They were staying in the hotel, he assumed, and so the secui King walked in that direction, his nose lowered to the ground to better find Jiva or Titania. Finding Niro or Amaranth would not have been terrible, of course, but seeing the visitors might be a good idea.
"It is good to see you in the court again," he said when he finally spotted Jiva, looking rather forlorn on the steps to the hotel, a caged bird in front of him.
