"I uh... I d-don't think you're going to fit..."

Why was I asked to see if his throne was still usable? Was he afraid to just test it out himself? Did he want me to take measurements? I don't know how to do any renovations if that's what he wanted....so....I left. He just stood there! What was I supposed to do? Did I do something wrong? I'll ask after completing some other quest.

I'm just glad he didn't try to sit down...
