Tehr nodded with a broad smile,<strong>"Of course my dear Tera, I'd be happy to make one just for you.  I could even craft one to look like a decoration of your choice, a family crest, a military mark, whatever you like.  Because you should know that I am always happy to help and serve you.  Your time in the house was invaluable, and I'll never forget how you came to my aid and saved my life."</strong>Of course Tehr was too polite to mention that such a thing actually only made them equal, repayment in a sense for when he'd saved her life during the great hunt, when they'd met.<br/><br/><strong>"Likewise,"</strong>he continued,<strong>"You should know that Hewthorne Hall is always welcoming to you.  If ever you need succor or comfort for the night, you have firm friends in house Wynt.  If the most demanding thing you request of our home is the trouble of a warm bath and bed, why, it is we who end up owing you.  For certainly it does my heart good to see your face again."</strong><br/><br/>He set his book down and gestured to the other chair by the fire,<strong>"Would you sit and talk?  Because my ear is yours if you wish to speak on anything, I always found you an interesting woman, in addition of course to being so very talented and beautiful."</strong>Of course, if she did sit across from him, she'd have to work to keep the bathrobe closed if she intended to preserve her modesty.
