Rosalyn smiled in a warm, trusting and friendly manner as she nodded her head after he spoke out the few words before moving away quicklyy, her gaze lingering on him as he made his way over to his sister and the others. Christina's quippage was left in the air but she did move to rejoin the elven maiden quickly enough. The two of them did look good together, presenting a beautiful, dignified female presence there. Then again, in these halls the women did appear a touch more ethereal and beautiful, but it might just be the way things were with their host for that evening.<br/><br/>At his words to the three ladies, the elders, he was presented with a nod and a smile as Marie moved to stand at his side, Jesanie already taking up the other side. The three matrons moved along as a group and the doors were opened to them swiftly to let them step into a small room off the main hall, with a semi-circular build of facing one flat wall to a curve, a set of seats along the side forming a relaxed, comfortable curve, a rounded table at the middle providing a bit of space for the tray of glasses and a bottle resting atop a white-ice slate in a small, shallow metal bowl.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>"Please take a seat, Master Tehr."</strong></span>The first lady, Phoebe, chose to speak in a polite tone of voice gesturing at the curved seats in a relaxed fashion, while Marie and Jesanie stayed close to his sides though not holding onto him.<br/><br/><em><strong>"I imagine you may be a bit confused, especially if certain young girls have let their lips slip words early as I suspect."</strong></em>Natalia cast a sharp glance at Jesanie and Marie who said nothing, but allowed a sigh to leave her lips a moment later.<em><strong>"However, that is secondary to the other facts in anycase. For the sake of expediency, I will be a touch blunt if you don't mind."</strong></em>She cast a look at the other elders who gave her a nod of approval it seemed.<br/><br/><em><strong>"You are a very interesting young man, with short time having shown you to be able to achieve much, and I doubt lady luck is the sole reason for that either. House Wynt has made quite a rise, showing itself a house of the capable, the cunning, and the blessed. Not to even mention the whispers spread into the night."</strong></em>She seemed to genuinely carry a rosyness on her cheeks.<br/><br/><strong>"Whispers, nothing, and not to mention? That's be a waste. You, master Tehr, are a man who takes his pleasures and shares them in a manner that brings quite a bit of joy to the air. I think it brings back fond stories of old baccanachs as well, or masquerades of delight and depravity, in a sinfully fun manner."</strong>From a woman once headed for sisterhood, the slightly smug look of a cat that caught the canary was a bit out of place, but she seemed pleased and a touch on the sultry side even.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>"Be that as it may, you have been a catalyst for some interesting events, and we believe that means there's something about your lineage. It's really rather secondary in my opinion to the other, more easily verifiable gifts and accomplishments, but still. We would like to see if you would be willing to entertain the thought of bridging the gap between our houses. We are working together, yes, but our bonds could be a touch closer too. In short, we would like to ask if you'd entertain the thought of seeing one of the daughters of the house for shared passions? This being with the intent to conceive, eventually, though we'd certainly not expect anything immediate, but with the understanding it would be in the horizon eventually?"</strong></span>The first of the ladies spoke in a slightly more refined and even tone as if talking a business arrangement but seeming to be glancing him over like appraising him with her eyes again for a bit of fun, bedroom eyes mingled with that sharpness was a bit of a change.<br/><br/><em><strong>"Of the three daughters of the House in the area, two have shown interest to go discuss the merits of this with you, while the third has, at least for the time, requested to not be included in the dialogue. In her own words, she has a task of her own to accomplish before she can entertain the notion of sharing her bed with another."</strong></em>Natalia spoke in a calm manner once more but cast a look at the currently quiet Marie and Jesanie, before turning her look at Tehr once more, as did the other two elders.
