The top of the tower itself was a half complete sphere, while the room only occupied the upper half, so that the bottom was divided between the entry way and the toiletry room. I spent a few moments grooming and washing myself and preparing for the day, and then rejoined him in the room. THE TOP OF THE TOWER ITSELF WAS A HALF COMPLETE SPHERE WHILE THE ROOM ONLY OCCUPIED THE UPPER HALF SO THAT THE BOTTOM WAS DIVIDED BETWEEN THE ENTRYWAY AND THE TOILETRY ROOM I SPENT A FEW MOMENTS GROOMING AND WASHING MYSELF AND PREPARING FOR THIS DAY AND THEN REJOINED HIM IN THE ROOM
d so, however, my joy was sent to a bitter, premature death, for there sitting at the table and smiling sardonically at me was the King, arrayed in all his pomp and splendor with his powerful pose, which, while it had impressed, and even to a point overwhelmed me, before, did no such thing to me now, for I was fresh with indignation at the exclusion of the humanoids across the sea from the paradise of Daem. He saluted me in a polite manner, and I him, though there was little affection behind it. Then, without any more ceremony, I sat down and began to eat, repulsing any attempt of his to start a conversation with persistent vigor, until I had finished, when I stood and demanded where exactly I was to make my toiletry. He laughed and said that he was wondering how long I would last, but as I was still too unpleasant to respond with any familiarity, he showed me to a little room that was tucked off of the side of the bell that formed the entrance to the domed chambers of the upper tower.  A HEARTY BREAKFAST AS I DID SO HOWEVER MY JOY WAS SENT TO A BITTER PREMATURE DEATH FOR THERE SITTING AT THE TABLE AND SMILING SARDONICALLY AT ME WAS THE KING ARRAYED IN ALL HIS POMP AND SPLENDOUR WITH HIS POWERFUL POSE WHICH WHILE IT HAD IMPRESSED AND EVEN TO A POINT OVERWHELMED ME BEFORE DID NO SUCH THING TO ME NOW FOR I WAS FRESH WITH INDIGNATION AT THE EXCLUSION OF THE HUMANOIDS ACROSS THE SEA FROM THE PARADISE OF DAM HE SALUTED ME IN A POLITE MANNER AND I HIM THOUGH THERE WAS LITTLE AFFECTION BEHIND IT THEN WITHOUT ANY MORE CEREMONY I SAT DOWN AND BEGAN TO EAT REPULSING ANY ATTEMPT OF HIS TO START A CONVERSATION WITH PERSISTENT VIGOR UNTIL I HAD FINISHED WHEN I STOOD AND DEMANDED WHERE EXACTLY I WAS TO MAKE MY TOILETRY HE LAUGHED AND SAID THAT HE WAS WONDERING HOW LONG I WOULD LAST BUT AS I WAS STILL TOO UNPLEASANT TO RESPOND WITH ANY FAMILIARITY HE SHOWED ME TO A LITTLE ROOM THAT WAS TUCKED OFF THE SIDE OF THE BELL THAT FORMED THE ENTRANCE TO THE DOMED CHAMBERS OF THE UPPER TOWER
