Constance sighed, so much for a time of relaxing with her family and friends.  She laid her cutlery down and looked around.  "I am retiring for the evening.  I was hoping that dinner might be a time to relax and discuss the days events, but it seems that other things occupy the minds." She stood and then left the room.  She hah hardly touched her food, and there was a slump to her shoulders.<br/><br/>The Lady was disappointed.  So much for a family meal..
