The army and the King are waiting outside. You know that you are expected to stand before them on the dais before the palace and deliver a speech to raise their spirits and to prepare the soldiers for the march ahead. As the commanders of the army, it would be expected. On the other hand, you could have one last drink with your allies to reinforce the bonds of fellowship with those closest to you. After all, these are the folks you have trusted with your life, and they have done the same with you. This might be your last opportunity to enjoy a bit of shelter in peace.
