Lancelot greeted Jack with a fist-to-palm salute as he stepped forward.

“Take a seat!”

Jack gave a wan smile and waited for Lancelot to sit down. “I’ve already talked to my father about your problem,” he said slowly. “We held a meeting to discuss about raising the tithe for the martial resources.”

“I never thought that they would take it for themselves!”
