Sir JonPop remained behind as he was too tired to try and eat right now, as did Sir Kdub who had been stripped of his armor and lay sleeping deeply, across several chairs.
King Thunder, said, "Thank you Sir JonPop for your gallant efforts to bring the news to my Kingdom. I will instruct the servants to prepare a bath for yourself and Sir Kdub, and a soft bed for each of you to sleep.
With that, he motioned to one of the several servants to arouse Sir Kdub and take them to a hot bath.
Sir JonPop and a groggy Sir Kdub, followed along behind the servant, Sir JonPop felt as if he were in a dream and sleepwalking, he was so exhausted.
The hot bath was very welcome as the Two knights were saddle sore and chafed in spots they didn't even want to think about.
Sir Kdub, reclined against the wall of the tub and said, "Sir JonPop, do you think this will work, this new way to stop the fookin spammers?"
"I don't know, Sir Kdub," replied Sir JonPop, "But I do know, that I trust Sir Merlin with my life and that this is the best chance we have."
The two knights were awakened from a deep sleep and made to leave the tub and were dried off and their sore spots tended to by loving hands of beautiful hand maidens with the healing salves and ointments.
Sir JonPop stated that now, he was very hungry and Sir Kdub indicated that he was starving.
Platters of hot juicy, meats and several kinds of vegetables were brought before them and they sat on the floor, naked, with their backs propped against the tub and heartily consumed all that was offered. Between mouthfuls, they talked of the hard ride and about the spammer snipers that hey had encountered along the way. They both wondered aloud, about the wagons that were following and decided that at first light, they would wear the new protection and set out to find the convoy. But now...They needed sleep.
The hand maidens led them to separate rooms and to soft beds. As they passed one room they heard a voice that sounded like Sir Bret, being ravished by a woman but were too tired to investigate. Sir JonPop fell upon the bed and was out like a Knight light. (Hee.)
