Eurich, who smirked knowingly at the Father Hisuka's obedience, guided his sister into the chamber and sat her down in the chair next to his.  Careful not to bump the slate on which he'd written, he sat as well, crossing his own legs rather delicately and setting his hands in his lap momentarily, almost in a fase bravado of casual air.  However, when he made a slight adjustment to the message on the slate before handing it to Ijemaru, a note at the end: "There was intell of several assasination attempts on the princess, have you dispatched or discovered the identities of said assasins?" And at the end, squished into the remaining space.  "Find an excuse for her to leave."<br/><br/>Typically Eurich would not have imposed such a task on a stranger, but he was fully confident in the boy's capacity to lie and make excuses.  Perhaps there would be something he could preoccupy her with.  If he could think of none, then Eurich would just simply tell her to go.  However, she would suspect a great number of things if he did so.<br/><br/>Lilliana was a little curious as to what her brother had written and why he'd handed it over so carefully, but decided that she would find out through context as teh conersation unfolded.  There had been plenty of times Eurich had handed a message to her father or mother that she hadn't seen but was able to decipher from clues in conversation.<br/>_____________________<br/><br/>_Aldreth and Thothcapel both put on celebratory clothing in brighter colors than their usual Visagoth earth tones and blues.  Thothcapel wore a golden gown that flowed sleek and slimming along her body, completing the effect of her lioness appearance.  Aldreth wore reds and golds, opulent decorations adorned both of them, much to Aldreth's<br/><br/>displeasure.  He didn't like being so decorated.  He thought the jewelery was too encumbering and clanked  noisely when he gestured.  He disliked the multiple layers of thick fabric, saying that they made him feel confined and constricted.  If a fight broke out he would be hindered.  However, he did agree with his wife on one plain truth: take the splendor while he could.  There would come a day when his title would be gone and though he would still have a grand place in the court, the title was what mattered.
