governor
I am the governor. I am in charge of a large province with many cities within it. I am responsible to the people, but mostly to the king. I take the king's orders and make them reality in my province. I am overweight because my position affords me rich food, but my work is mostly at a desk or in meetings with other officials.
Greetings, good Sir  And a Good Morning to you, Sir! What brings you out to the market? I have come to find something exquisite for the King's supper. He feels like a change  I see. From what I understand, the real trick is to find the highest quality spices and use them well. Ah, a wise man I see. Can you recommend anything, good Sir?  That depends, I suppose, on the pallet of the King. What sort of foods has he tired of?  He eats too much fish and poultry, he complains. Can you suggest anything more exotic?  I see, yes. Perhaps some more red meat would suit his appetite. There are fine venison steaks, and cured salamis at the butcher down the path. Perhaps something more exotic? Though I am partial to a good venison steak myself, as my shape might tell you  More exotic? Well, it is the King we're speaking of after all. Have you met the hunter who tracks down the wild ostrich in the plains? Ah, ostrich! That sounds like it might tickle the King's palate. And, if I may say so, my own Only if you forget to remove the feathers first!
