Looking over the various laws from the books provided a groundwork on which to begin working, but there was a fair bit of points to cover and writing it all down in a neat and legible manner took its toll on the wrist over time. The primal energies coursing through his body might keep his wrist from cramping up from the work but there definitely was a whole lot of work writing down just the basic draft. Setting up a company required a lot of forethought, but given the amount of power and money moving in such ventures it was hardly unexpected. At least there was a few small example pieces available in one of the books on contract laws, and while far too low-level to really be suitable for this kind of big venture it did provide a frame work of what was to be expected.<br/><br/>His work on the parchment had actually taken a fair bit already when there was a sound of fingers rapping on the closed door, followed by Angelique's voice.<em>"Pardon me for the delay, master Tehr. May I enter?"</em>She waited in a polite manner for a bit for the acceptance, then to press the door open and step in with a calm expression on her face again. Closing the door behind her, the half-elven woman took a moment to look at him by the door before walking on over to his desk.<br/><br/><em>"There's still a fair bit of time to the high tea, but I ended up taking longer than I expected with a few other matters. I am here now though if you want me to look over the work you have been doing for a second view."</em>She smiled while glancing at the books on the table and the writing he had been doing already, but there seemed to be a somewhat thoughtful look on her face as well.<em>"I managed to confirm it as well as I can that Emily d'Ravos should be present by High Tea, though unlikely to stick around for much longer. Lady Caelor in turn has informed me that she will be delighted to attend upon hearing you plan to be there. I did note she seemed to be smiling rather merrily this morning on that note."</em>There was a bit of pride on her face at that remark.<br/><br/><em>"I am always happy to see the people of this house joyful, but I was meaning to ask about something. Would it be possible to access the house coffers for a coming celebration beyond the usual limitations? I can display all the relevant receipts to Lady Christina on this to confirm what the expenses would be but I would still prefer your permission as the Master. I also apologise but I have been requested to keep at least parts of that to myself for now, so I cannot really elaborate this time around."</em>She smiled a touch embarrassed after making this request, while reaching over towards the documents seeming intent to start going through them while giving him a chance to think about her words and request.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">ooc</div><div class="spoiler_body">He'd know her well enough to tell she would answer if pressed by him, she holds her first loyalty to him and his house after all, but she seems keen on keeping to the request made at that. <br/><br/>Also, considered a small side-story part on Angelique Hlaford's side but figured that it'd be disruptive even if it could be resolved in a few posts, but it seems I am already cramming way too much different things to the ongoing moment so I'll keep that for now. Also, sorry for late reply, felt more inspired towards the later part of the evening and kept re-editing this thing through.</div></div>
