He needs your help

Whatever it is on Viscount Muller's mind is certainly heavy as it takes him quite some time to say it. "Your majesty, I need a boon,"

A boon, or as commoners would say it a favor. Your eyes drift toward Deitrich which is standing to the left of you. Deitrich shakes his head. This is something not known to your right-hand man.

"Let's hear it," you say.

Muller raises his head and then look at Deitrich and then your guards. "I'm sorry Your Majesty but this is a personal matter of mine," With that statement, you immediately see only two options. Clear the room, leaving only Muller and you, or reject his request outright since he wouldn't be telling you in the presence of others.

Clearing the room increases the risk that should Viscount Muller attack you, it will take some time for people outside to respond. However, if he really needs your personal help and you manage to provide it, he will be indebted to you. In fact, there's a chance that the secret is big enough that he would be in the palm of your hand by the end of it.

Should you take the risk?
