Emily chuckled faintly and then gently kissed Tehr's cheek. "I'll trust her in your care then. Besides, the last thing I want to do is to feed<em>that</em>man's<em>ego</em>by allowing him to take liberties with things and people. That's the mistake his father made although with him it was about other people's money and the road he was supposed to help keep secure." She cleared her throat a bit and then pat on his cheek. "You're yawning though, its obvious that we've been up a while and well, between me and my sister, and the attack, and the long ride too, I imagine that you are more than a little tired. We can carry on this tomorrow. As for the battle, yes I heard about the duel planned for tomorrow. I-"<br/><br/>Suddenly pausing and staring at Tehr, the halfling woman's jaw dropped a little before she burst out laughing. "Ohh! OH! That's why! He's got a really big ego and the thought of being put in a fight with some human noble that he probably thinks barely knows a cantrip insults him, or it could be if he knows about you that he is actually angry at the mere possibility of being shown up by someone else. We're talking about a man with a big ego but also a nasty temper." She smirked a hint, finally nodding. "Get some rest my dear, I'll hope to join you tomorrow for a lot more, but in the mean while, you best recover." Gently pulling on his hand to get him up, she helped him back to his room before heading off to let him get his rest.<br/><br/>It wasn't long until there was a soft knock on the door, and the maid stood there with a polite smile on her face, a tray on her hands, and a curious look in her eyes. "Evening m'lord, I brought some food as you requested, and had some tea leaves ready as well as hot water. I could come pour you a cup if you would like?" She offered, waiting if he'd take the tray or ask her to join him in his room.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">OOC</div><div class="spoiler_body">As previously detailed, leaving the evening events upto you then.</div></div>
