"We train more warriors than we need to protect our homelands anymore, because the outrider tradition is the way to earn one's nobility in our society. Many still enjoy the quiet, tranquil life of craft and simple work, because they keep much of what they gain and what they hand over is used wisely. For this reason, I believe that in exchange for a such a trade to enrich our people with the joys of new flavors to life would certainly be met with gratitude and loyalty. There's many outriders that would gladly come to serve your family's interests, or could at least come to teach your family's savants in the saddle about the art of an outrider. While different in height, there are techniques gained through centuries that would be of use still. Likewise, we would be more than happy to share some of our harvest. It would be a step closer in trade relations, and to sweeten that I believe we could arrange to lift the toll for any trade your house did with the north. Many houses pay our toll to keep the roads safe, but some would still rather set sail and not pay. The raging storms to the north does make it a dangerous ordeal though, so the roads price is often worth it."<br/><br/>Her expression was relaxed and warm, but she was looking at him with hope and a sweet look on her face. She did name offers they could make in turn, but left it up to him at the same time. Finally nodding a little, she let out a soft breath. "I have no doubt my sister intends to have our two younger sisters join in on trying to 'tame the giant', and if she gets her friends along, well, you could no doubt use some fresh fruit and juice to build up your strength later." Her expression a bit awkward she chuckled at the time. "Truth be told, I do envy her joy in life, I suppose I met with wrong elements in my time, and let that affect me." She shrugged unbotheredly, looking at Tehr.<br/><br/>"However, House Ravos needs good allies and that also requires a measure of trust. Emily has shown willingness to vouch for you on that." She took a moment to consider something, before finally asking a bit awkward something that seemed to have been on her mind for a while. "Is it true though that uh..." Her gaze drifted on his lap before rising quickly up to his face. "... from what I have understood, you aren't particularily commited romantically to any one, but you treat each one with your own sense of respect? Because I wouldn't want to think that someone would consider my sister an 'exotic trophy', but again, I don't think that's what is happening, she's rarely been so happy about visits..." She looked at the window at this point, legs crossing briefly.
