The regents went to escort King Peppa home to Crate Castle. The journey was an arduous one, and the king became ill on the way. But he persevered, and arrived safely at home. Which he then promptly peed in. Although Peppa seemed lonely for the first few days, he quickly became used to life in Crate Castle with his regents.
