Chuckling a little at the time when Tehr made the joke about borrowing sugar, the Duke and Rosalyn both smiled to him calmly as Rosalyn then spoke up in a light melodic tone once more. "We might not be that good neighbors then, we're used to trying to work through things on our own to not trouble those around us. I believe that help should be freely given, and asked openly when its needed, but a little hardship can sometimes serve as a way to better yourself and learn how to survive through such tests." She smiled in a sweet fashion while saying this, relaxing a little. "Though if we run out of sugar sometime I think I could make the journey, though I might seem a bit embarrassed showing up on your doorstep with a cup in hand when I rarely spend time in a kitchen myself." Her tone joking but friendly.<br/><br/>Duke Caelor smiled in a relaxed manner, nodding his head to Tehr again at the time that Tehr began to speak of the Queen then, and drawing a deep breath the Duke brushed his fingers along his chin before speaking. "I've met her several times, and I have to agree the Queen of the Isles is a remarkable woman. I half suspect our elven king has not taken any woman besides her because he may have been smitten by her in the past, but given a few family members and their<em>vocal</em>protests against half-elf lineages such ideas would remain mere ideas." He shrugged his shoulders slightly in a tired fashion, but smiling again once more then. "Thankfully they are far from the upper branches of the family tree but it is still troubling to see some such individuals."<br/><br/>At the time Rosalyn was stirring some honey-tea before her hearing Tehr's comment about the Queen's radiance as compared to her, offering him a sweet smile in turn. "Oh but I am sure that her presence is fascinating, delightful and enchanting in a regal manner, where as mine seems to honey your words and bring a small flush to my cheeks on hearing said sweet words spoken." Her tone relaxed, she wasn't really blushing at the comment but the friendly smile a genuine one.<br/><br/>The two of them listened to him recount the tale of his hunt and what transpired during it with a serious look on their faces, waiting for him to be done rather than interrupt with any questions. There was a brief look the two of them shared when Tehr mentioned Tera's name but they said nothing right away at least, though the name seemed familiar to them. Nevertheless, as he finished with the comment to dancing Caelor chuckled a hint and nod his head slightly.<br/><br/>"I've had the honor of leading her to the dance floor before and I must admit she is a great companion that knows how to dominate the room with the majesty of her presence, but all the same when she danced with me I could see she wore the mask she shows to the public, and none of the guard would permit even a diplomat of my skill to get past to speak with her in complete privacy. Yet I hear some whispers that the Queen has indeed taken a consort by now." His tone a hint curious, looking at Tehr with inquisitive look about him. It didn't seem he knew for sure, but he might have his suspicions.<br/><br/>Rosalyn meanwhile turned to look towards the doorway seeming a bit alarmed for a moment. The reason was swiftly made clear too. The green-shaded skin, the strong powerful thighs moving forth in sandals, the pants hugging those legs closely rising to the leather belt around her, and the tight vest she wore with strings lacing the front pulling it tighter together the northern amazon walked in with one hand leisurely holding onto a large crossbow, and another holding a bit of rope at which's end was a bundle of rabbits. Moving towards the counter, the woman seemed to speak a few words to the halfling man who hurried to take the rabbits to the kitchen in the back, before she rested her firm backside on the seat at the counter picking up a glass of dark lager the halfling had poured the moment she came back.<br/><br/>The light tanned clothing was practical and looked fitting for hunting, covering that strong figure fairly well, yet at the same time called attention to what wasn't there. No sleeves to hide those arms, her midriff somewhat bare, the vest's front showing a fair bit of skin too, and the pants tight hold might not show her mound through it, but the way it clung to her ass it was probably the fact her arms looked strong enough to backhand a grown man to the floor in one blow that spared that backside from slaps.
