The queen paused for a moment to look at him with curiosity at hearing his request, but seemed to regard it with a certain share of trust as before, soon nodding her head in agreement. There was a curiosity showing in her eyes but yet she regarded him without accusation or suspicions in that gaze, merely amused and a bit thoughtful.<strong>"I think I will be very interested to see how this project will come together in the end. It is quite ambituous, and perhaps even risky. Yet it might provide a great deal of wealth to those involved, as well as helping to keep the nation more stable. I have to admit you do tend to come up with surprising ideas that work out very well after a moment's thought."</strong>She chuckled in amusement, but hummed briefly afterwards. The month's time away at most seemed to concern her somewhat, but not enough to deny the request obviously.<br/><br/><strong>"I shall be looking forward to hearing about your actions at your return. For now, I think it might be best you set forth then and start your work on this idea that has come together in a swift order. I'll announce it either the day after tomorrow, or in a month's time if you wish to take the whole of that month to prepare well ahead of others, depending on whether or not I'll hear from you during tomorrow then. You will have leave for the time from the royal summons, but I need to know whether to bring the idea to the open soon or if I will hold it back for a little longer as you prepare."</strong>She watched him with amusement but said nothing more at the time.<br/><br/>The woods around the Isles were still in bountiful shape, despite ship-wrighting of the past there was a certain charm to them and many a lord allowed a patch of wood to grow practically wild around the roads themselves, so wood would be at hand for various projects. It was acquiring the highest quality of wood that could be taxing, and straight, sturdy wood called for old trees deep within the forest, close to where the fair folk usually dwelled. Having come to meet with one however, Tehr did have the advantage of at least being able to reach their ear, something that some others would be hard pressed to mimic.
