All fitting for headsman of Yelmed. He had spend years building it and is proud on this achievement as his delicate maintenance of it. Outside the main house appears a newer structures in form of goat fence and large area where they can graze peacefully and there was rock tiled road towards the front porch and door.<br/><br/>Delnir had heard from Soveliss he had taken apprentice....one named Vanessë Istya (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=300270.msg14700602#msg14700602). Almost no one in Yelmed, besides himself and his wife Grenetta, know that he had talked seriously with Istya family to marry Erin to Vanessë when they were children. Nothing official, more musing back then as kids were young. However Istya's did consider it but then declined as they quickly moved to elven courts and return there and so dreams of any marriage was dismissed as even notion.<br/><br/>However now it seems Vanessë had made return to Yelmed reason or other, Delnir once again saw opportunity to try marry off his restless son Erin to beautiful elf maiden and get him settle down into Yelmed. Pick a craft or a career and then eventually take reins as headsman of Yelmed. he did not care that much for courtly status quo for marrying his son to Vanessë who has much more noble lineage (which is a plus), what he concerned most was that his son settles down now than later, considering dangers of the road.<br/><br/>But he knew he cannot force neither of them marry so he tried best create ideal circumstances for first meeting and just be silent of his intentions. So when he received word from Erin through letter he would be arriving in specific day Delnir just happened visit Soveliss when he was educating Vanessë, in happenstance he happened to talk 'accidentally' about some elven court related issue and asking could Vanessë come help double check they are correct by court's standards (some old documents).<br/><br/>Then out of gratitude for her work being linguistic he invited her to dinner (https://www.afamilyfeast.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/Instant-Pot-Country-Chicken.jpg) with himself and his wife Grenetta. As they started he did small talk with her while Grenetta filled table with plates and food, bringing in fresh lemon juice, water and goat milk as drink options. In a perfect timing Erin walked up the road to the house, without knocking the door he enters and loudly speaks from lobby as he proceeds undress travel clothes as he moves to kitchen; "I am home mom and dad! Was quite a trip I tell you, we found a rare scale at...oh? We have guests?" Erin was removing his travel clothes, splendid in work by themselves but the clothes underneath weren't shabby either. Delnir had seen first his son's keen fashion sense more a waste of gold, but now with his intentions he was glad his son always dressed well on occassion.<br/><br/>Delnir nodded and replied calmly; "Yes, she is Vanessë, she helped me today double check some texts from court documents and decided invite her to dinner. Vanessë, meet my son Erin. He is traveling merchant by trade."
