I am a musician. I travel around playing my lute for the people to enjoy.  I like to create new songs for others to hear.
Wow! This is a grand place to play. Thank you sire for inviting me to play here I appreciate your awe, but I called you here today to play music for my court, not to make conversation. Excuse me your highness, but when are the people due to come and enjoy my music? They are not here yet The guests will not arrive until noon tomorrow, but I wanted to personally ensure that your music was good enough for the upper-class and royalty I will be hosting. Do you not remember interviewing me 2 weeks ago and that is why I am here. You cordially invited me and you said that you would pay me well! Do you not remember? I remember clear and well, but I can just as easily go back on our deal. I have asked for a demonstration now, and that is exactly what I expect from you. Well I have another gig in the kingdom not far from here and they will pay. and keep their word. I'm going to go now If you leave here now, I will have your hands severed so that you may never play another instrument in your life! Do what you will, but I believe that is not in your best interest seeing that you need a musician I'm sure I could find another musician who plays twice as well as you, and for half the cost too! And that is why I heard you have not had a party in years! You are the most unkind king in the land. There are better and kinder kings around. What do you know of ruling a kingdom, bard? Kindness does not rule an empire and keep law, an iron fist of order does!
