Liam's point of view
"Are you sure the king wouldn't be offended by this" lord Christian asked, the king had instructed that William take his place in hosting the memorial service for the late duke.
"Don't worry about my father" William said, William asked Lord Christain to host the event instead, he was injured and wasn't sure he could stand in front of the people with his two crutches, it made him look vulnerable, especially in a county filled with enemies of the king.
"We can't extend it any further, the late duke has to be honoured now" the prince commanded, lord Christian had been postponing it while waiting for the king's response. No duke had ever stayed this long without being honoured, the people were starting to talk.
"Your wish is my command your highness"
