The water had long since gone cool, but Tehr was simply relaxing in the tub when the knock came.  It gave him the chance to get up and dry off.  "I'll be down right away."  he called.<br/><br/>He dried and dressed quickly, his body now smooth and almost completely hairless.  Sometimes he left a close cropped thatch of dark curls above his shaft, but he'd decided to go 'full elven' this time and removed all body hair south of his head.  A quick pass across his face ensured he wouldn't need to shave for several days as well.  He dressed quickly in his traveling outfit and went downstairs just as the chest was being loaded onto Emily's carriage.<br/><br/>He saw Christina waiting and the three servants also waiting to say goodbye.  He gave each of the servants a breif hug and then turned to Christina. "Please be safe Christina, House Wynt has enemies about and if you're not sure, take Tera with you when you leave the house."<br/><br/>Christina hugged him and whispered, "I'll feel safe when you return brother."  Then he felt her slipping something into his pocket and she added, "I remember what Emily said yesterday and thought you might need this."  He pulled back and looked in his pocket to find a small glass vial with what appeared to be olive oil in it.  Tehr grinned at Christina as she stepped back and said at her normal tone of voice, "I look forward to hearing all the stories of your trip brother."<br/><br/>Then with that Tehr turned and took Emily's hand and led her to the carriage and offered to help her in.  "You look lovely miss d'Ravos.  I am looking forwards to this trip, thank you for having me."<br/><br/>He would climb up into the carriage behind her and shut the door with one last wave at the four women he was leaving behind for a week.  Part of him hoped this gambit paid off.  Then he sat back in the seat and looked at Emily with a smile.  Her sweet face belied the perverted woman beneath.  He noticed that the carriage had shades that could be drawn down for privacy and he wondered if he'd have the stamina for this trip.<br/><br/>"So," he said, "Tell me of your lands.  I understand we have a long trip ahead of us and we must do something to pass the time, mustn't we?"
