When you go to depart, King Uther waves for you to stay.
"Sir Iffan, Sir Wiggan, come stand before your King."
Hesitantly at first, they come to stand beside you.
"Knights, remember always that you are knights of the King. Royal Knights you shall be, and wear that title proud, and always remember who your liege is and know that always you act in my name."
He pauses for that to sink in.
"Now, as your liege lord I give you a command. I assign your service to Count Roderick until such time as I order you elsewhere. Follow his directions as you would my own, give him your loyalty and service as you would me. But remember always who your liege is."
At a signal from the King, Count Roderick steps forward. You can see he is clearly displeased with this turn of events, though he hides it well.
He takes a breath and says, "I accept your service on behalf of King Uther."
He then looks at you for a moment, and appears to change his mind about something. Painting a smile on his face, he turn to Uther. "My King, by your leave, I can hear the grumbling stomachs of some the company from here. I pay thee, shall we begin the feast?"
Uther laughs. "By all means, Count Roderick, let us feast and celebrate these new knights!"
