<div style="text-align: justify;">Irina was paying attention to Damon's attitudes and the way he moved. Something in her wondered if he was hiding something, but she decided that he was probably just a little intimidated with all of those strangers in one place. Nowadays, with the city getting more and more crowded, it wasn't uncommon for nobles to retreat to the country and raise their families there.

She hadn't met him around, after all.<br/><br/>Finishing putting a little bit of each option on her plate, the girl waited for Damon to do the same. "Oh, the same as every other girl's", Irina replied with a smile. "Reading, needlework, horseback riding, when we are in the country".

It is very a informal affair, horseback rides, picnics, lounge games, some dancing, and the likes of it".</div>
