Ari smiles. "Alright. That is good. I am glad it will assist you." he says happily. Looking at her. "Drinks? What happened to tea and water?" he asks rather confused. Watching her father. "Are you alright Milord?" he asks worriedly. Looking at her. "What do people do for entertainment. Back in my days we would sword fight. Spar. Practice. And ride down the nile river." he explains. Biting his lower lip. "Do you think you could help me catch up to speed on things?" he asks hopefully. "I do not wish to irritate Lady Maria too much. Because it isn't intentional." he explains. Looking at her. Nodding his head. "Yes. It has been." he looks at her tilting his head to the side. "Why do you wish to know how long I have been in the crystal."
