After the long journey back to the island of Burrklau, and a much more restful sleep, Jovri lay in bed, staring up at the ceiling. His room, aside from it being spacious, was nothing too special when it came to Burrklauan standards. Despite technically being a monarchy, the leaders didn't have a very lavish lifestyle, while there were some luxuries. There were more important uses for the money.
Jovri was content with his surroundings and especially liked the handcrafted decor. He wanted to get into woodworking at some point, but he had more issues on his plate now. His nation just might fall into war at any moment, and there wasn't enough time to get prepared. Olohi's attempt to unite with other nations a couple years back put the island in this mess, but Jovri needed them to help defend it.
The sudden squeak of the door jolted Jovri out of his zone. He looked over as his adviser Adari poked her head through.
"I hope you're feeling better," she spoke, "Parliament should meet urgently."
"Yeah, I know..." Jovri grunted as he pushed himself to sit. He sighed and rubbed his face.
