Tehr pressed a silver coin into the young stable boy (or girl's) hand and turned towards the mansion.  Taking a moment to quickly cast a cantrip to blow off any road dust from his clothing, he raked a finger through his hair and approached the door.  The woman in the fine black riding dress strode out from the mansion's front doors, and he sketched a small bow at the woman.  Her disdain was subtle, but she didn't care for his presence.  He didn't know who she was and it appeared that she wasn't going to introduce herself.   Her mannor was dismissive, and so he was happy to allow her to keep her distance.  Watching as she mounted up and rode away Tehr was struck by her appearance.  There was no doubt in his mind that this woman was an important figure in House Saari's politics, and it was also obvious that she deigned his visit below her.  He didn't even blame her for that of course, she didn't know the intentions of his visit.<br/><br/>He watched as the woman rode away, then sighing, turned and walked into the foyer of the Saari mansion.   Standing in the foyer of mansion he looked around.  The house seemed very well decorated, Saari may not be Dale, but they were doing fine for themselves.   He stood in the just inside the doorway and waited patiently.  He wouldn't even hastle the servants.  He would wait to be approached, then introduce himself.  His plans were to request an audience with a ranking noble.  Then he would feel out the possibility of an alliance.   If of course he could learn who the woman in black was, then it was all the better.
