"A good profession," Itotia said smiling before reaching for the flask she kept under her hat. She drank from it before emptying the rest into her wine.

Tuomas mumbled a word of gratitude as he shyly gathered a few scraps of food from the table.

"My lord, I am afraid I must retire to my chambers for the night, however, where should Makani stay?" Itotia asked stifling a yawn. Such long flights always tired her, and even more so when she felt the tension in the border regions of her nation.
Anywhere would do," Makani said in about as quiet as a dragon of her size could manage.

"Of course."
He closed his eyes to picture the layout of the castle, before turning to Makani with a smile.
"The castle's left turret is quite large and mostly empty. I can have a few servants bring some carpets and cushions if you so wish."

"Thank you, would you mind if I made a small platform off of it? Of course I would revert it when I was finished," Makani asked.

The Lord waved his hand in consent.
"Please do whatever it is that makes you most comfortable."

Tsuki stood up and bowed her head to the lord before turning towards the door and beginning to walk out.

Itotia nodded, as did Makani, and Itotia's hands drew out the runes for transport. Makani dissolved into nothingness and Itotia bowed before leaving the room, placing her hat back on her head.

As his guests began to depart, Katsuto rose from his seat to bow to each of them.
"Thank you all for joining me this evening. I trust that your rooms will be to your liking. Please, rest well."
Turning to the youth, he nodded.
"Tuomas, when you have finished, please see to it that Makani is taken care of. "
Tuomas finished his food and bowed politely.
"Of course, my Lord."
He silently left the room.
A slight presence could be felt just outside the castle. Katsuto frowned, recognizing the intruder and closed his eyes.

Coming back to her senses, not realizing much of what had just occured in the room, Kirche decided on exploring the Castle a bit more. She moved away from the window and out the door without a word to say...

*Returns to find most of the guests gone but the lord still at the dinner table* "My lord may I speak with you. It is about the intruder and what he has said."

"Oh Dear Lord," Liallia said softly rubbing her temples, seeing from the window the source of the disturbance. She sunk against the wall and closed her eyes, thinking while a slight breeze circled her.

Katsuto's eyes twitched under the eyelids as he struggled to remain concentrated on the events outside. His hands gripped onto the table, digging into the polished wood.

Liallia nodded to seemingly no-one in particular as she stood up and crossed her hands, shadow covering her and wind dissolving it away, leaving no trace that she had ever been there.
