With an amused face, he was about to answer her question, but was interrupted by a second question. His face took on a more somber look as he thought about the events of the previous day. He had not forgotten, but was trying to live in the moment so as not to be overly emotional.  Given the state of her dress, he could surmise that this had been one of her infrequent jaunts into the wilds of the land. He wouldn't claim to know why the woman did these things, but was quite familiar with the rumors having been in and around the court kitchen where many talked about how little the woman ate among various other topics.  It was not his place to be asking the particulars of personal habits of someone in the royal court, so he let it be. What little he did know about the attack on his father was, "While me father was escorting the Queen's stallion for mating, he was attacked. If anyone knows the full details as yet, it would be the coroner, but from what I saw, it appeared as a pack of wolves.  I was escorted to the site to clean up the remains of the horse, and I wasn't really in the rights at the time to be handling such matters. My glad that they made me to do it because I don't know what me would have done." He looked even more sad as he thought about that for a moment, "'Onesty, I don't know what me going to do now, but will figure that out as I continue me job." He grabbed the sign post for a moment, as the first draft from his flask was beginning to take effect, but casually tapped it as he raised his flask in an attempt to gesture that he might overindulge in the establishment.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>(Sarita as NPC in her absence)<br/><br/>Sarita was quite saddened by the news and could only wonder at what the Queen would be doing if she had already heard the news of this, "I'm s-s-sorry, Endorel, that times aren't better for you, and that you have to go on in his abs-s-senc-ce."  He collected himself, "What is done is done, and there are far too many things that need to get done just now. The services will be held around high sun, see ya around."<br/><br/><br/>Endorel wandered slowly over to the mill the towering structure with the windmill in the top was on the top of a hill in the center of town to take advantage of the winds which would be high above the castle walls that led to the outskirts and fields. With as many people that stayed in the castle grounds, it was only fit that it would have a mill for the bread making that would need to be done. The tender was busy making more flour for the kitchen; he didn't work everyday, as he could make several days worth in one day. Even so, he was always in the shop, cause one never knows when the customer will be ringing at the door. Endorel made his way inside and paid the man for the work he'd requested more than a week before.  One small bag and one over-medium bag he carried from the store into the kitchen. The small bag was the secret to the pastry because eggs were quite expensive and were always in demand.  The plant he used could be found in abundance in any forest, and was the same that elves had used for centuries.  Lila came in just then and showed him his fruit for which he thanked her and proceeded to make the pastries. If she wondered about the yellow colored stuff in the small bag, he never noticed as he taried on with the task.  By the time he was ready to clean up, he'd made a dozen and a half pies and enough cake for a three layer nearly the size of a wedding cake. He placed them all in the clay oven that Lila had already going and stoked it with more wood before heading off to the stables for a bit trusting Lila to make sure they weren't disturbed.
