"Ah..my teleportation.." He pointed to his circlet around his forehead; "I've some magical prowess."
Ayalan laughed as he folded his arms over one another, the fake looked nearly identical to the real- "Well Elysia, I suppose I'll have to rematch you one day..but for now-"
He opened the door for her, "I suppose you're hungry." Aya's body looked not even tired in the least- his movement was nothing to him, not even taking time to catch his breath as if he was exerting little to no effort.

Elysia was impressed with his stamina, especially considering the condition he was in a few days ago. But she didn't show it as she nodded and entered the dining hall where a servant was waiting to give the orders for the food to be brought.
The servant pulled out a chair for her, then gestured to Ayalan where he was to sit. He bowed and then opened the door to the kitchens, allowing four servants with serving trays to enter.

Ayalan looked as the servants pulled through and gave him his seat, as he took it, folding his arms in his lap.
"Thank you for inviting me to breakfast, Queen Donnerlupo."
His respectful side had come back for the public view as she wanted- he closed his eyes, listening to every footstep, smelling every scent; he knew what would be on the table before it even came.
Aya's eyes opened again, watching Elysia's movements.

She nodded respectfully to her guest as the trays were placed on the table and uncovered. There was a plate of pastries, one of sausage and bacon, one of eggs and the last contained several types of breads; a well balanced but simple breakfast.

Ayalan knew it all before it had come, as he nodded graciously and let Elysia have the first choosings as was her style- he then closed his eyes; focusing on everyone's movements; from stomachs gurgling to eyes blinking.
He thought quietly to himself as he looked up to the Queen again, then to the servants.
"..That girl there, has definitely eaten already.." he mused in his own mind, hearing everyone; he assumed she had had some of the food early, but Aya wasn't one to rat someone out so easily.
"Queen Donnerlupo, what is your agenda for the day?" He kept his mind off of having to observe everyone and thing.

Elysia selected some eggs and bread, then waved the servants off to serve Ayalan. "First is a meeting with two of my generals about the status of morale within Tuono and at its borders, then a relatively short trip to a nearby village. A new underground spring was discovered and turned into a public fountain and well."

Ayalan took the bread and nothing else, nodding graciously to the servants- he had never been a breakfast eater, but he would humor Elysia.
"I don't suppose that the village's spring is necessarily approved by your Queenship then?" Aya assumed that to have to note about it was for one of two reasons: Safety of the water, or a way to bank in on their new findings. He also assumed that Elysia would take the nicer route.
"And I don't suppose you need any..accompaniment?" He tried to refrain from using the word help, plus, he hadn't seen much of the outside world in awhile.

"There is nothing wrong with the well, but it has been dedicated to the queen, therefore I am honorbound to attend the opening ceremony. These villages enjoy celebrations, and now that they have a valid reason to celebrate I imagine it will be quite an affair."
She didn't seem quite so enthused by the idea of a celebration.
"If you would like to attend you are welcome to, of course. But only if the healer agrees that you are well enough to travel."

He looked at her less than enthused explanation, as he extended his hand in gesture. "I'm sure we'll find a way to have fun. We just have to come, watch you say your words, everyone cheers, and you come back. It should be a joyous occasion for the people. I'm sure I'll find a way to make it fun for you. Give you a wave, raise my fist in the air. It'll be like spotting the odd man in the crowd."
Ayalan held his sides as he smirked, and stood tall. "I should be fine enough. We are only walking afterall, but I can hold my own should it come to that."

"Actually, I travel by carriage. It would be improper and dangerous for the queen to travel by foot, even such a short distance as that."
Elysia had a few bites of her food before continuing, "And no, I imagine it would not be hard to spot you; you're an odd man in a crowd or not."

Ayalan nodded as he spoke, "I suppose as a King of Chalybs, my travels have always been by foot..I figured why should I start to be safe when I'm enthralled with the spontaneity of life?"
He grinned, and shrugged. "I don't even consider myself much of a king. I'm just..a leader."
Aya's eyes met hers as he grinned, "Well jeez. I didn't know I was so easily noticeable. I guess I should try harder so you have a more enjoyable time!"

"The yellow eyes catch one's attention easily." She finished her small breakfast quickly and wiped her mouth with a napkin. "And after I have returned from that I have a meeting with a representative of the Boruto tribe regarding lands they want to take back into their possession."

Ayalan had been done as he closed his eyes a bit, laughing.
"I guess I forget that my eyes are so easily seen, most people don't really notice my eyes actually. They notice my hair, or that I'm probably half dead. You know," he smiled, and folded his arms.
"And it sounds as if your day is full of excitement, unpredictable, and, lucky for you, easily done things day by day. It's a wonder you can do this all alone. I respect that," he stood up and allowed her first movement.

Elysia stood as well. "It is simply a day, easily organized into parts that can be dealt with individually." A servant opened the door and bowed to her as she turned to leave the dining hall. "The meeting should not take long, it is simply a report. The carriage will be prepared during that time. You should return to your room and prepare, unless you are ready to leave immediately."

Ayalan laughed as he took a better mental note of how to deal with a day, as he nodded- he spoke up again, "Good luck with your meetings then. I only need a weapon and get a bit...more public friendly."
He laughed and allowed Elysia to leave, following after her, muttering under his breath loud enough for for her to hear, "Don't suppose you wanted to race to my room and to your meeting?"
His smile turned to a light grin that she could see for a moment before he took off on his own direction.
