Finding yourselves seated around a table, the pretty young lady at its head rises to speak. This is whom you have come to see.
:
"Now that everyone looks ready, I suppose we should get underway. As you may already know, I am Anaiel Elizabeth Lavendia, and-ohhh, I see the looks on your faces already. My name? Silly, I know, blame my father. The nutty old fool wanted a daughter like an angel so he named me after one, ha. And look at how it turned out. Still, it could have been far worse, and at the very least it's pretty, but I forget myself, you aren't all here to watch me ramble on about ancient and irrelevant family history, I'm sure you're wanting to know about the offer I have extended to all of you."
:
"Well, it's simple, really. I just need you to protect me and help me when necessary, and in return I offer you something akin to a new start on life, or a chance to rise above wherever your birth may have placed you. Such things do not matter to me, only your skills. If you end up changing your mind you'll be paid and sent on your way, so think of it as a mundane contract job with the potential for far more."
"Oh, not that I'l accept any evilness or unkindness. If you do something bad out of sheer malice you'll be kicked out or worse without a thought, then again you've all already been vetted thoroughly so it won't be a problem, isn't that right Sebastian?"The chipper lady's rather dour faced servant seems to respond somewhat reluctantly, although whether it's because he'd prefer to say nothing or because he was intently considering her question, you aren't really sure.
"Yes milady." "Sebastian is so very good at his job, so if he says it's so then that's good enough for me. Before working for father he used to answer directly to a king, you know! He can do absolutely anything, it's amazing! Sometimes I wonder if he's secretly some sort of demon. One time there was a cat caught in an enormous tree and using nothing but a plank of wood and a small piece of string he..."Her rambling stories go on for quite some time, and by the butler's various reactions to the assorted claims of his brilliance you can't help but doubt their veracity. Still, all things must come to an end, and eventually she seems to catch herself.
"Haha, it looks like I've lost myself again. I've never really had guests before so I'm not too sure what to do. Still, I need to prepare so I'd best be off to my room, remember that we leave at dawn and make sure to get plenty of rest. Enjoy the food and goodnight."Appearing wholly unrepentant and still brimming with barely contained energy, Anaiel departs, her servant soon following after. You are quickly left alone with only a table of food that is neither bad 'nor extravagant, and each other. Wondering what the coming days might bring.
